Most of the time as a system administrator you are managing your servers over the network. It is very rare that you will need to have a physical access to any of your managed servers. In most cases all you need is to SSH remotely to do your administration task. In this article we will configure a GUI alternative to a remote access to your RHEL server, which is VNC.
