 ====== Server Desktop Sharing ======
+:!: **NOTE**: The method described has been removed in Ubuntu 24.04, and is therefore no longer available beginning with our linux server version 241022. Alternative remote management options are [[https://www.itpro.com/mobile/remote-access/368102/how-to-remote-desktop-into-ubuntu|RDP-based]] desktop sharing [[blocks:server:advanced_server_configuration:webmin|Webmin]] and [[blocks:ssh|SSH]] (terminal) access.
 Most server management can be handled either through the BLOCKS user interface or using the [[advanced_server_configuration|webmin]] interface. However, you may occasionally need to have desktop-level access to the server. Having a mouse and keyboard connected to the server is the simplest way to accomplish this. If your server is in a location that is hard to access, you may instead access it using Desktop Sharing, which is a way to connect remotely to the server from another computer on the same network.
