Hi,
I've just set up Ubuntu server 20.04 and installed Gnome in it. Then I created a number of user accounts in it. The user can access the server via Putty but in dot command environment. How can I make them start Gnome once they logged the server.

Regards.

See How to use X11 forwarding with PuTTY.

if I remember well vncserver has an option to automatically start X when a user connects to a server.
