I have a fresh install of Ubuntu 10.04 Server on my VPS and would like to install a minimal GUI onto this and allow VNC access to.
Please could someone outline the steps required to set this up so that I can VNC to my machine under a newly created user account.
Create the user:
useradd -m -s /bin/bash -p password -d /home/usera userA
chown userA:users /home/usera
Install the GUI
sudo apt-get install --no-install-recommends ubuntu-desktop
Setup VNC
?
