Is it a common thing for a developer, student, or hobbyist to want to connect back INTO their workstation from a remote location? If so, is it common that they'd want a CLI session vs. a full graphical session (Remote Desktop)? I don't think it is obvious to some of these audiences that the local account login password also allows remote access. I see people set a simple password for a "throwaway" or "test" laptop for example, but unfortunately this exposes them to being hacked via SSH. Or is the SSH service shipped turned off by default in Fedora Workstation? -- desktop mailing list desktop@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop
