Download x11vnc and have it available to run on far-away.east (on some linux distros it is as easy as 'apt-get install x11vnc', 'emerge x11vnc', etc.) Similarly, have a VNC viewer (e.g. Vncviewer) ready to run on sitting-here.west.

X11VNC is the popular VNC server for creating remote desktop connection and access remote desktop. It works will almost all the desktop environment available for Ubuntu and Debian based systems. Using remote desktop connection we can connect any remote system and access graphical user interface and work. We can use any available vnc viewer like the tight vnc viewer, real vnc viewer or ultra vnc viewer.
X11VNC can be a better remote support software for you. This tutorial will help you to setup x11vnc server on your Ubuntu, LinuxMint & Debian system and connect using vnc viewer from the client system.
Step 1 – Install X11VNC
X11vnc packages are available under default repositories, So just update default repositories and install.
Install VNC Viewer on Raspberry Pi with Kali Linux is now successful but what if you don’t want to manually run x11vnc every time you plan on accessing your Raspberry Pi remotely? If you want x11vnc to auto-start every time you boot up your Raspberry Pi then we need create a new file. HOWTO: Setup VNC Server (x11vnc) on Linux Mint 18. This tutorial was adapted from here. Remove the default Vino server: sudo apt-get -y remove vino. Install x11vnc: sudo apt-get -y install x11vnc. Create the directory for the password file: sudo mkdir /etc/x11vnc.

Step 2 – Create Password
Now create a password to connect using vnc viewer from client system.
Step 3 – Start X11VNC Server
How To Use Debian Linux
After successful installation of x11vnc server on your system. Let’s start it using the following command. Change the parameters as per your setup.
The VNC server will start on default port 5900. In case the port 5900 is busy with some other service, it will automatically select the next available port like 5901.
Step 4 – Connect from VNC Clinet
To connect to the server using VNC, you need a VNC client on your system. For this tutorial, I am using RealVNC viewer on our system. You can use any other client of your choice.
Step 5 – Setup AutoStart on Boot
Finally setup the auto start of x11vnc server on system boot. Create a x11vnc.conf file under /etc/init/ directory using following content.
Hi everyone,
This is what i tried:
copy /usr/lib/systemd/system/x11vnc.service to /etc/systemd/system/x11vnc.service
edit /etc/systemd/system/x11vnc.service, added the Install section and changed ExecStart
systemctl daemon-reload
systemctl enable x11vnc
But after reboot, x11vnc was not started automatically, while starting the x11vnc service manually afterwards worked. It turned out I had produced a dependency cycle.
But I am unsure how I can resolve the cycle. Here are the other units envolved in the cycle (both unchanged):
/usr/lib/systemd/system/multi-user.target:
/usr/lib/systemd/system/graphical.target:
My intention was to start x11vnc.service after graphical.target is reached. How can I achieve this ?
Altering my Install section to
screws up the system and leads me to an emergency shell at next boot because /etc/systemd/system/default.target was symlinked to /etc/systemd/system/x11vnc.service by systemctl enable x11vnc.
Any ideas / suggestins ?
Thanx
