Pull image

docker pull dcsunset/archlinux-vnc

The tag can be one of those listed above.

Usage

Simple usage:

docker run -d -p 5900:5900 -p 6080:6080 -e VNC_PASSWD=password dcsunset/archlinux-vnc

Then visit http://localhost:6080 to visit noVNC UI. Or you can use a different VNC client (like TigerVNC client) and connect to localhost:5900.

If VNC_PASSWD is not set, then the security type of vncserver is set to None, it is insecure when exposing the container on the Internet.

Exposed ports

  • 5900: Used for VNC interface
  • 6080: Used for noVNC Web UI

Installed applications

To make the image lightweight, only the following applications are installed by default:

  • xfce4
  • tigervnc
  • noVNC
  • wget
  • vim
  • chromium

Build

docker build -t archlinux-vnc .
