5 of the Best Free and Open Source Remote Desktop Software for Linux

“The term ‘remote desktop’ refers to a software application or
an operating system feature that enables users to connect to a
computer located in different area and use or run its own programs
as if it were local. Controlling a desktop remotely is a kind of
remote administration and is often used by enterprise help desks to
provide technical support for their clients. Although remote
administration is the primary use of remote desktop software, it
can also be utilized for headless computers. Going headless means

desktop connectivity depends upon any of a number of protocols such
as Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP), Virtual Network Computing (VNC),
Remote Frame Buffer Protocol, Apple Remote Desktop Protocol, and NX
technology.
