Connecting to the pi from a local computer with shh.
=Graphical Interface, VNCthrough the Network=
*VNC, '''Virtual Network Computing''':
<blockquote>In computing, Virtual Network Computing (VNC) is a graphical desktop sharing system that uses the Remote Frame Buffer protocol (RFB) to remotely control another computer. It transmits the keyboard and mouse events from one computer to another, relaying the graphical screen updates back in the other direction, over a network. [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_Network_Computing] </blockquote>
**Remote Desktop.
*You need a client and a server. The server runs on the raspberry pi. The client is on whatever machine you are connecting from.
*We can install our vncserver through the raspbian package manager, apt-get.
*apt-get, '''Advanced Packaging Tool''':
<blockquote>works with core libraries to handle the installation and removal of software on the Debian GNU/Linux distribution and its variants. APT simplifies the process of managing software on Unix-like computer systems by automating the retrieval, configuration and installation of software packages, either from binary files or by compiling source code.[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_Packaging_Tool]</blockquote>
**this apt-get is is included with the raspbian operating system, by default.
*While logged in as a user with '''Super User''' (su) permissions.
*First you want to update your package index with the most recent info from the source repositories.
**<code>vncserver :1</code>
**You will be prompted to set a password for people to login to the system with VNC. Decide on a password and enter it. Then reenter it. You can decline the offer to enter a view-only password.
