In particular it might mean that the password used would be transported in plain text across the network. Of course you may not wish to run screen sharing without encryption. I was then able to use Mac OS X Finder to Go to (in my case) vnc://192.168.1.170 which failed before.Īlso Royal TSX worked as a screen sharing client on MacOSX where it did not before.
the solution at the time was switching off encryption for the screen sharing and it has worked for me with Ubuntu 20.04.Įg on the ubuntu 20.04 box from a terminal session. It seems like it has happened in the past with earlier versions of Ubuntu and Mac OS X. It looks like the two systems cannot negotiate an appropriate encryption level to use between them.
