![]() If you are using another Mac to connect to the "shared" Mac (aka "remote server"), then you just click on the "Go" menu in the Finder and select "Connect to Server" and enter the following address: vnc://localhost:5900 Then to access the "shared" machine (aka "remote server") you need to first establish an SSH encrypted tunnel from the client computer like this on macOS/Linux command line (I'm not sure what the Windows equivalent is): ssh -C -N -L 5901:localhost:5900 is an account on the remote system with SSH privileges and "" is the IP address or DNS name of the system you want to access. This Mac will now be referred to as the "shared" machine or "remote server". You need to make sure "Remote Login" is checked in the "Sharing" System Preferences so that you can first create an SSH tunnel to the computer before using VNC to access the system. No VNC is not secure or encrypted by default.
