Ubuntu VNC extension packs for 6.x

Post by gnordli »

Hi.

I am looking at using Ubuntu 18.04 to run several VMs and would like to use the VNC option instead of RDP because of the licensing issues. Anyone know of a way to get the 6.x series VNC extension pack on Ubuntu. It looks like they are sticking with the 5.2.x series.

thanks,
Geoff

Start by reading the related chapter in the User Manual, 9.22. Other Extension Packs. And then build it from https://www.virtualbox.org/browser/vbox ... tPacks/VNC.
