I'm trying to get RDC connection to my VM. I followed MS tutorial and it is not working. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-machines/linux/use-remote-desktop

 

I get to login page but when I put in my details depending on what session I choose I get either no response  or error. I can't chose exact session as shown in the tutorial, I assume new version. But if I chose Xvnc  I get this messege in picture. Does anyone have any idea what is wrong?

VNC and RDP are different protocols. You need an RDP client to connect to an Ubuntu machine running xrdp. If you are running VNC on the Ubuntu machine, you'd use a VNC client to connect to it.

Ok just if someone else is ever searching for solution. XRDP is having problems on Ubuntu 18.04.... My solution was VNC viewer. I followed this link.
