[Bug 1667894] Re: Remote desktop documenation not complete

 

Ubuntu 16.04 is using Vino for a server and Remmina can access it using
the IP of the server and VNC protocol. I have just checked it myself.

Title:
  Remote desktop documenation not complete

  Confirmed

Bug description:
  The documentation on desktop sharing is incomplete. It describes how
  to turn it on but not how to use it.

  I have always been aware of this feature but I actually never tried to
  use it until today. Expecting it to just work.

  Turning sharing on is simple but it is completely unclear and
  undocumented how one would connect to the shared desktop. Remmina is
  default installed on a Ubuntu system but I don't think this is the
  software to use for this feat.

  Because the documentation is not complete I cannot use this feature. I
  have to find another way like installing VNC server.
