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).
I forgot that the command-line I was using was from a long time ago when
I actually had tigervnc working properly over port 5901. When I connect
using just -X then try to run evolution, it fails:
$ ssh -X -i ~/.ssh/mykey-key.rsa -l gary remotehost -p 1024
[gary@fedora ~]$ evolution
(evolution:3644): GLib-GIO-WARNING **: 09:41:05.182: Your application
did not unregister from D-Bus before destruction. Consider using
g_application_run().
That's not failing unless it comes back to the prompt. How long did you
wait? Is it already running for that user?
If you want to do desktop sharing, then your friend needs to enable
that
in the sharing section of the Gnome settings.
Do you have more specifics on that? I've tried search for "sharing" and
"remote" in my GNOME settings in Cinnamon and nothing is found.
I don't know about Cinnamon. Maybe it doesn't have it. In Gnome,
there's a section called "Sharing" which has ssh, desktop sharing, and
file sharing.
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.
It appears rustdesk is only the client, correct? The server is built-in
to Wayland as an RDP server, correct?
It's both and Wayland doesn't have an RDP server. Both sides run
rustdesk and one side does the connection using the connection info
provided from the other side.
