docker-ubuntu-vnc-desktop

Docker image to provide HTML5 VNC interface to access Ubuntu 16.04 LXDE desktop environment.

Quick Start

Run the docker image and open port 6080

docker run -it --rm -p 6080:80 dorowu/ubuntu-desktop-lxde-vnc

Browse http://127.0.0.1:6080/

Connect with VNC Viewer and protect by VNC Password

Forward VNC service port 5900 to host by

docker run -it --rm -p 6080:80 -p 5900:5900 dorowu/ubuntu-desktop-lxde-vnc

Now, open the vnc viewer and connect to port 5900. If you would like to protect vnc service by password, set environment variable VNC_PASSWORD, for example

docker run -it --rm -p 6080:80 -p 5900:5900 -e VNC_PASSWORD=mypassword dorowu/ubuntu-desktop-lxde-vnc

A prompt will ask password either in the browser or vnc viewer.

Screen Resolution

The Resolution of virtual desktop adapts browser window size when first connecting the server. You may choose a fixed resolution by passing RESOLUTION environment variable, for example

docker run -it --rm -p 6080:80 -e RESOLUTION=1920x1080 dorowu/ubuntu-desktop-lxde-vnc

Default User

The default user is root. You may change the user and password respectively by USER and PASSWORD environment variable, for example,

docker run -it --rm -p 6080:80 -e USER=doro -e PASSWORD=password dorowu/ubuntu-desktop-lxde-vnc
