Docker image to provide HTML5 VNC interface to access Ubuntu 16.04 LXDE desktop environment.

Quick Start

Run the docker image and open port 6080

docker run -it --rm -p 6080:80 dorowu/ubuntu-desktop-lxde-vnc 

Browse http://127.0.0.1:6080/

Connect with VNC Viewer and protect by VNC Password

Forward VNC service port 5900 to host by

docker run -it --rm -p 6080:80 -p 5900:5900 dorowu/ubuntu-desktop-lxde-vnc 

Now, open the vnc viewer and connect to port 5900. If you would like to protect vnc service by password, set environment variable VNC_PASSWORD, for example

docker run -it --rm -p 6080:80 -p 5900:5900 -e VNC_PASSWORD=mypassword dorowu/ubuntu-desktop-lxde-vnc 

A prompt will ask password either in the browser or vnc viewer.

Troubleshooting and FAQ

  1. boot2docker connection issue, fcwu#2
  2. Screen resolution is fitted to browser's window size when first connecting to the desktop. If you would like to change resolution, you have to re-create the container
