I have originally set up x11vnc server according to main source or also repeated here.
The server seems to start properly, see below.
user:~$ sudo systemctl status x11vnc.service
● x11vnc.service - Start x11vnc at startup.
Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/x11vnc.service; enabled; vendor preset: enabled)
Active: active (running) since Wed 2018-08-08 13:22:39 EDT; 9min ago
Main PID: 2312 (x11vnc)
Tasks: 1 (limit: 4915)
CGroup: /system.slice/x11vnc.service
└─2312 /usr/bin/x11vnc -loop -forever -bg -rfbport 5900 -xkb -noxrecord -noxfixes -noxdamage -shared -norc -aut
However, I get the message "The connection was refused by the computer" if I try to connect to it.
I have found that the port 5900 is not open: the command
sudo lsof -i :5900,3389
results in nothing
Does anyone know what could have happened?
