I have a few family members that I help support. For instance, I installed Linux Mint on my grandmother’s PC. She doesn’t know any different and my young cousin doesn’t understand it so he finally stopped giving it viruses. I used to use TeamViewer to take over her PC when she needed support but I got my account banned because they believed I was using it commercially. Oh well!
I have Tailscale installed on the computers. This gives me SSH access. What would you suggest? RDP? Something else?
Well, I want to be able to see the screen so that I can talk my grandma through stuff. I have fixed things through SSH and run updates that way too.
X forwarding should let you use GUI apps from the remote computer. Its not quite a full remote desktop experience though. You can see how to set up and use x forwarding on YouTube.
