Using Raspberry Pi through VNC

Virtual Network Computing (VNC), is a graphical desktop sharing system used to remotely control a computer's desktop from another computer. It uses Remote Frame Buffer Protocol (RFB). It transmits keyboard strokes and mouse movement from the controller to the remote host and relays back the graphical screen updates from the host, over a network like Ethernet. Installing a VNC server like TightVNC on Raspberry Pi enables the user to remotely access the desktop of Pi and perform necessary operations. This is...

SSH

Accessing Raspberry Pi through SSH

SSH stands for Secure Shell. It is a secure channel created over an insecure network. The channel consists of a server and a client. This channel uses public key cryptography and can be used for secure transmission of passwords, remote log in, command execution etc.. SSH can be used when we cannot physically access the Raspberry Pi due to various reasons like the USB ports are engaged or the board is in a remote location. This method also minimizes hassle of...
