Hi guys,
I have a pc without graphic interface (only shell), with private IP address, and I would like to use TeamViewer (or something like that) to control it remotely.
Why not just ssh into it? If necessary you can forward a public port of your choosing to the local IP of the machine using your router. If you don't have access to the router config, you can instead open a reverse SSH tunnel to some 3rd party machine with public ssh access.
Why do I think Teamviewer did have an ability to use command line access?
Generally one can use some remote access method. Ssh is popular. Sending x or vnc over ssh may work in some systems but you say you have no gui. Various people may have vpn so they can set that up too.
