Khadas Blog | Changing VNC Server Password

Updated: Mar 9, 2020

To use in a hostile network environment, you may want to change the VNC server’s default password.

Login Via SSH or VNC

Login via SSH or by VNC, and open a MATE Terminal, via “Applications/System Tools/Mate Terminal”, upper-left-hand-corner menu!

In the Terminal window, type vncpasswd.

$ vncpasswd
 
$ Password: <input new password>
 
$ Verify: <repeat new password>

That’s it! The next time you login via Remmina or RealVNC, remember to change your VNC password, or else it will fail to authenticate!
