How to remote view OSX machine from Fedora with TigerVNC
I understand the I can use VNC protocol for remote viewing.
There is a mac on my network which has VNC enabled. I have downloaded TigerVNC
dnf install tigervnc
I get the IP address of host I want to view
host hostName
And then type userName@hostIpAddress into the field in the screen shot and press connect but I'm not able to connect.
when I press connect I get message
unable to resolve host by name: Name or service not known.
linux fedora osx vnc

cd /usr/share/applications
and then I just can just remove view the using the host name, no need for a user name... just type this into the terminal
