trying to Remote Desktop using Remmina on Android to Linuxmint 20.2 Mate

Post by oreofields »

I am trying to follow instructions found by Googling and searching in this forum for making a Remote Desktop connection from my Android tablets using Remmina (or some other program) to Linuxmint 20.2 Mate edition.
  • I am confused because many of the instructions found are for older distros. When I couldn't find specific Linuxmint information, I searched for Ubuntu information. Things that sounded hopeful didn't work for me.
  • Some ways to connect are not secure. I need something secure. I have previously used Android Remmina while in Indonesia connecting to a Windows Remote Desktop in Ohio, and it seemed both fast and secure. Can I do that with Linuxmint?
  • Would it be better to use Cinnamon instead of Mate for Remote Desktop sharing?
If someone can share clear steps, that would help a lot. Thanks,
Phil
