7.3.1. Enabling VNC Access to Virtual Machines

To enable VNC access to a virtual machine, you need to do the following:

  1. Enable VNC support in the virtual machine.

  2. Specify the TCP port number on the physical server that will be used to listen to VNC connections for the virtual machine.

    Note

    Note: A unique port number must be specified for each virtual machine where you plan to connect via VNC.

  3. Set a password to secure your VNC connection.

You can perform all these operations with a single command. For example:

# prlctl set MyVM --vnc-mode manual --vnc-port 5901 --vnc-passwd XXXXXXXX

The changes will come into effect on the next virtual machine start.
