Hi, I have a fedora38 system on Optonline with port 1024 forwarded from the router to 1024 on the fedora38 system where ssh is listening. I'm currently using the following to connect:

$ ssh -i ~/.ssh/mykey-key.rsa -L 5901:127.0.0.1:5901 <http://127.0.0.1:5901> -Y -l gary remotehost -p 1024

I'd like to be able to have applications launched on the remote system appear on my desktop, also using fedora38. What's the best way to do that?

I've read about RDP and gnome-remote-session but much of the docs appear to be out-of-date. General advice on what works in 2024 would be appreciated.

My friend is having difficulty with his evolution configuration. I'd like to be able to launch evolution on his PC and have it appear on mine.

I'm not clear on if you want to do desktop sharing or a remote X connection. For an application like evolution, I would suggest desktop sharing. If you want to run evolution and have it display on your screen using X forwarding, then you just need the "-X" option to ssh. No port forwarding required (other than ssh to get in). Then you have to run the application and it only displays on your screen (slowly).

If you want to do desktop sharing, then your friend needs to enable that in the sharing section of the Gnome settings. Then you would forward port 3389 instead of 5901 and connect to localhost using rdp and the credentials that your friend configures.

My current preferred method is to use rustdesk. There's an rpm available from the website. I run my own server and relay for it, so it's completely private. I've only used it for supporting windows users so far, so I'm not sure how well it works for Wayland on the remote system. It works fine with Wayland on the viewing side.
