Dear Digital Ocean community,
I’m a developer and I’m all kinda unexperienced to hosting/linux. I know the basics of linux but that’s it. For my latest school project, we are in need of a linux server.
I’m trying to get VNC working, and I followed both of these tutorials:
Problem is, when I arrived at the very last step of the second tutorial (Step Four — Connect to Your VNC Desktop), you should enter the following command:
ssh -L 5901:127.0.0.1:5901 -N -f -l user server_ip_address
I get the following response: ssh: connect to host “here comes my server ip” port 22: Connection refused
It is weird because in step 5 from the first tutorial, they told me to change this port 22 to another port.
I really hope someone can help me, because I’ve been struggling alot with my server lately. :( Thanks in advance!
Jelle
