  • What are you trying to do? Remote desktops are useful for graphic environments. The only graphic environment for OpenBSD is X11. You can run X11 applications through ssh, or you can run a local X11 server and tell an OpenBSD client to connect to it. Commented Jun 26, 2016 at 20:08
  • Just exploring my options :) I was hoping for something that uses a standard protocol like RDP, VNC, or similar because I want to connect from my ChromeBox. Commented Jun 26, 2016 at 20:30
  • No, you don't want to connect to OpenBSD through RDP or VNC. A ssh client should be good enough. Commented Jun 26, 2016 at 20:40
  • I have nothing against SSH. What I don't like is remote X11. I also have nothing against the the terminal (I use one all day). I just want a nice way to mess around with GUI apps on OpenBSD remotely. Commented Jun 26, 2016 at 20:51
  • There is a way that uses standard protocol: X11. What do you have against it? It's the native remote desktop protocol on Unix. Commented Jun 27, 2016 at 21:26
