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.

- 6080: Used for noVNC Web UI
