The installation procedures were as below. I eventually successfully run the host of Chrome Remote Desktop on my Kubuntu 14.04 LTS. So, I write this article to share my solution. I believe that many Kubuntu users also face the same problem and feel disappointed. Unfortunately, I didn’t find a workable solution for my Kubuntu 14.04 LTS, which operates with a KDE desktop environment. You must correctly install and setup the configurations for the host component on Linux.įor Ubuntu users, I think you can find a fix if you use a GNOME or Unity graphical interface. But if you want to set up it on Linux, you may encounter many troubles. If you install the Chrome Remote Desktop on Windows or Mac, there should be no big issues. It is the only remote desktop software that can access PCs in secured networks as well as the Teamviewer among a bundle of similar software. Otherwise, I suggest you try Chrome Remote Desktop as an alternative solution.Ĭhrome Remote Desktop is a free product provided by Google. If you think the price is affordable, I’ll recommend you to continue using the Teamviewer, which I think is the best remote desktop software. And, sadly there is no plan or offer for educational use. The monthly license is not cheap (for students). Once your connection pair is restricted, you have to purchase a service license or send an appeal to the Teamviewer if you believe you used it for personal use only. However, it has started to detect invalid connections and delivery ‘Commercial use suspected’ / ‘Commercial use detected’ messages since 2018. For many years, the Teamviewer team had not taken any actions to restrict the above usages. However, accessing campus networks is defined as using in a commercial environment, according to the Teamviewer licenses. I also use remote desktop to monitor the servers for running simulations. It assists them to read and download journal papers from the databases subscribed by their universities via remotely access their campus networks. Remote desktop is useful for research students and part-time researchers. Teamviewer is awesome and free for personal, non-commercial use. It is wonderful to remotely access your desktop at any time and anywhere. It is also easy to set up, as it installs its host and client at one time. The Teamviewer allows PC connections beyond private networks, that are blocked by firewalls or router settings. It is quite often that universities and institutes have a secured network, therefore traditional VNC connect fails to receive incoming packets via listening ports. Teamviewer is the primary choice of cross-platform remote desktop software for Windows, Mac, and Linux systems.
