Use VNC to view server console session on a linux server

Starting a vnc server session remotely from the console:

Edit the ~username/.vnc/xstartup

# Uncomment the following two lines for normal desktop:
unset SESSION_MANAGER
exec /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc

Remember, VNC isn’t secure. Make sure you encrypt the connection with an ssh tunnel or something else.
