Help with VNC connection

[edemir206]

I'm stuck in part 7: qemu-system-x86_64 -machine q35 -m 1024 -smp cpus=2 -cpu qemu64 -drive if=pflash,format=raw,read-only=on,file=$PREFIX/share/qemu/edk2-x86_64-code.fd -netdev user,id=n1,dns=8.8.8.8,hostfwd=tcp::2222-:22 -device virtio-net,netdev=n1 -cdrom alpine-virt-3.19.0-x86_64.iso -nographic alpine.img

When I run the command above it says: VNC server running on 127.0.0.1:5900

But I can't access the VNC server using a VNC viewer from my PC using the 192.168.100.X ... address

Am I missing something ?

To make the VNC server accessible from your termux, you need to bind it to an IP address that is reachable from your local network. Here's how you can modify the command:

qemu-system-x86_64 -machine q35 -m 1024 -smp cpus=2 -cpu qemu64 -drive if=pflash,format=raw,read-only=on,file=$PREFIX/share/qemu/edk2-x86_64-code.fd -netdev user,id=n1,dns=8.8.8.8,hostfwd=tcp::2222-:22 -device virtio-net,netdev=n1 -cdrom alpine-virt-3.19.0-x86_64.iso -nographic -vnc :1 -monitor telnet:127.0.0.1:1234,server,nowait alpine.img

In this modified command:

• -vnc :1 binds the VNC server to display :1, making it accessible remotely.
• You can change the :1 to any suitable display number.
• -monitor telnet:127.0.0.1:1234,server,nowait opens a telnet monitor interface on the localhost. You can use this to manage the virtual machine.
• Replace 127.0.0.1 with 0.0.0.0 to bind it to all interfaces if you want to access it from any IP on the network.

After modifying the command as shown above, try connecting to the VNC server from your termux using the IP address of the machine where the QEMU virtual machine is running, along with the corresponding display number (e.g., 192.168.100.X:1).
