[20:51] <questi> if i want to convert a server to a desktop I simply install gnome or similar and add remote access?
[21:02] <MIF> I would use tasksel
[21:05] <MIF> questi ^
[21:08] <questi> good idea
[21:08] <questi> :)
[21:08] <questi> ty
[21:23] <MIF> Np
[21:37] <questi> tasksel is neat
[21:53] <questi> for remote access use vino?
[21:53] <questi> or there are better clients
[21:53] <questi>  
[22:19] <questi> yet to work :)
[22:19] <questi> I installed lubuntu desktop on ubuntu should work right?
[22:20] <questi> :)
[22:20] <questi> yet to get in via rdp :)
[22:20] <questi> or vnc
[22:22] <questi> sudo apt-get install xrdp
[22:22] <questi>  ?\
[22:22] <questi> :D
[22:22] <questi> can any one here reply
[22:22] <questi> which one is better rdp or vnc
[22:23] <dasm> rdp is a protocol by Microsoft. It works on most of operating systems, including Linux. VNC is platform independent.
[22:24] <dasm> Most of the time for Linux interaction people use VNC, while for Windows, RDP
[22:26] <dasm> https://www.routerhosting.com/rdp-vs-vnc-remote-desktop-comparison/
[22:26] <dasm> I see questi left already
[22:40] <questi> I think i fucked up install :)
[22:40] <questi> haha
[22:43] <questi> dpkg -l lubuntu-desktop  Desired=Unknown/Install/Remove/Purge/Hold | Status=Not/Inst/Conf-files/Unpacked/halF-conf/Half-inst/trig-aWait/Trig-pend
[22:43] <questi> |/ Err?=(none)/Reinst-required (Status,Err: uppercase=bad) ||/ Name            Version      Architecture Description ii  lubuntu-desktop 20.04.8      amd64        Lubuntu Desktop environment
[22:43] <questi> does it mean it is installed or?
[22:50] <dasm> it is installed. why do you think it didn't work?
[22:50] <dasm> usually it's better to use some kind of pastebin. either pastebin.org or paste.ubuntu.com/
[22:51] <dasm> it's easier to read a properly formatted code from there
[22:51] <questi> yes
[22:56] <questi> rdp working
[22:56] <questi> not sure how secure yet works :)
[23:00] <questi> For increased security, you may consider setting up Xrdp to listen only on localhost and creating an SSH tunnel that securely forwards traffic from your local machine on port 3389 to the server on the same port. 
[23:00] <questi> how would I do this?
