Hi everyone

I’ve got a capable Ubuntu server hosting Docker, using Portainer to manage many stacks and containers. I’m about to add a couple machines to a swarm for a little fault-tolerance.

Before this, Docker was Windows hosted which gave me a useful addition; a handy remote desktop for those times when I wanted to do something remotely using a GUI at home.

https://hub.docker.com/r/linuxserver/rdesktop seems to work OK but I wondered if the community here have any suggested alternatives. Instead of running within Docker, has anyone simply installed a GUI on the Ubuntu host?

Thanks in advance for your input.

      I’m worried about if/how Wayland is going to affect X11 forwarding TBH… It’s a really useful linux feature that i’m susprised gets very little use

      kasm looks good, thanks - it’s definitely in the area; desktop as a service. I want something I can suspect and go back to, not sure if I can do that on kasm or not but a good tip, I’ll check it out.
