====== Connect to Raspberry Pi OS via VNC using Remmina ====== -- //Tested with **Raspberry Pi OS** on **July 2020**// -- When trying to connect from your Linux machine using Remmina to a Raspberry Pi running Raspberry PI OS with RealVNC enabled you get the error Unknown authentication scheme from VNC server: 13, 5, 6, 130, 192 RealVNC only supports a few security schemes. ''Authentication=VncAuth'' seems to be the only scheme that allows direct connections from VNC-compatible Viewer projects from third parties. In order to change to VncAuth scheme in your Raspbian and set a password to accept connections from Remmina VNC plugin, open a SSH session (or a terminal window) on the Raspberry and generate your VNC password with: sudo vncpasswd -service Now, edit the file /root/.vnc/config.d/vncserver-x11 sudo nano /root/.vnc/config.d/vncserver-x11 and add the following line at the end of the file: Authentication=VncAuth Now your config file should look more or less like mine: _AnlLastConnTime=int64:0000000000000000 _LastUpdateCheckSuccessTime=int64:01d65c12272dff1a _LastUpdateCheckTime=int64:01d65c12272dff1a Password=c3abbea3b003a0b231737c0541892d72 Authentication=VncAuth ''c3abbea3b003a0b231737c0541892d72'' is the encrypted version of ''raspberry''; your line will be different. Eventually, restart the VNC server service with sudo systemctl restart vncserver-x11-serviced and you are ready to connect to you Raspberry Pi using Remmina.
