Not just the terminal, I mean a full remote desktop. What’s the best method? Not just from one linux machine to another machine, but also remoting from a windows machine to a linux machine.

I’m a bit of a linux novice, but trying to do more.

    xrdp tends to work well enough, and plays nicely with both the windows remote desktop application and various Linux clients

      I have been using xrdp on the “server” and remmina on the “clients”. Both ends worked beautifully “out of the box” (i.e. apt install). Occasionally I might have had to open the firewall for xrdp?

        I use xrdp and remmina as well. I don’t open ports though, I just use my VPN to get into my home network first. much safer
