There are two Ubuntu PCs called A and B.
A and B are connected to the Internet using two separated Internet connections. (In my case, two mobile broadband connections ppp0 x2 )
Each connection has a unique & static public IP address.
What I need is to control A computer's cursor, using B computer's mouse, over the Internet.
In both computers, I have allowed other users to control my computer in Desktop Sharing preferences, as below:
When I try to connect to A from the B using Remmina Remote Desktop Client, it refuses to connect after trying for a while.
These are my settings:
I expect this to be done from an available open source software, not from TeamViewer.
I found this guide harder to understand.
Please provide me clear instructions...
Thanks for having a look!
