I am trying to determine if the failure is with Ubuntu or VirtualBox.
Using Ubuntu MATE 16.04 with the Ubuntu repository 5.1.38 VirtualBox.
To remotely connect I am trying to use VNC rather RDP from the proprietary extension pack.
I verified the VNC extension pack is installed, both with the GUI and in
/var/lib/virtualbox/ExtensionPacks/VNC.
I created a password:
Code:
vboxmanage modifyvm "Ubuntu" --vrdeproperty VNCPassword="test"
The password is always rejected as failed.
I am using remmina but I see the same failure with xvnc4viewer. An nmap scan shows the configured port is open.
Thanks.
Note: The Oracle repository and *.run script are not solutions because the VNC extension pack is not included in those versions.
