How to Restart a VNC Server With Ubuntu

Ubuntu is a community-supported version of Linux that is freely available for download and installation. It supports Virtual Network Computing (VNC), which is a remote access service that lets users connect to your system and view its desktop across the Internet or other networks. If the VNC system has had its configuration changed or is not working properly, restarting its daemon process will reload its configuration and may fix the problem.

Instructions

1. Log into your Ubuntu system.

2. Click "Applications" > "Accessories" > "Terminal."

3. Type "sudo /etc/init.d/vnc restart," and then press "Enter."

4. Enter your system's root password when prompted, and then press "Enter." The VNC service daemon will be immediately restarted.

5. Type "exit." Press "Enter" to close the terminal.
