Chrome Remote Desktop Host Download
Dannette Blockmon
I've tried reinstalling chrome and chrome remote desktop and following the instructions in this question. I can connect to my computer through the "remote assistance," and I can connect to my Mac from my linux machine. Any other ideas?
I think I figured out what was going on. First I deleted my chrome remote desktop installation and all config files associated with google chrome. Then I reinstalled, and followed these edits here so I could remote in to the current session. It worked for about 24 hours, then it failed to connect after that.
The Chromium-browser and Chrome are probably different browsers. Probably, Google cannot give some tokens to the Chromium. Because of the reason, you can carry on the following steps for using chrome-remote-desktop on ubuntu.After this installation, two chrome application is available on your computer. The real one is red-green-yellow colored.
I'm trying to start running Screaming Frog in the Google Cloud Platform console using the steps on the ScreamingFrog website but I'm having trouble getting the Remote Desktop to run in SSH. Every time I enter DISPLAY= /opt/google/chrome-remote-desktop/start-host --code="4/0AZEOvhVqPx3gYL01LCIWIK8idzut9v47hRYwL5QWi4EOhDt_JJaO0ZrPLMCs_EiMNacfCQ" --redirect-url=" _/oauthredirect" --name=$(hostname)
I believe you're doing everything right and Google has pushed a faulty package here. Chrome remote desktop used to work for me before but when I updated the Debian package recently this error started to appear. From the looks of it it's a faulty python script.
If you want to be able to access your own computer from another desktop or mobile device, start by opening up Chrome on the host computer (or downloading and installing Chrome, if you're using a Windows, Mac, or Linux system that somehow doesn't already have it). Within Chrome, navigate to Google's Chrome Remote Desktop web app and click the circular blue arrow icon inside the box labeled "Set up remote access." (If you see a blue button labeled "Turn On" instead of a blue arrow, congratulations: You're one step ahead! Skip the next paragraph, and you'll be back on track.)
If you ever want to disable remote connections, just go back to remotedesktop.google.com/access or click the Chrome Remote Desktop icon to the right of your browser's address bar. You can then click the trash can icon alongside your computer's name to remove it from the app. Alternatively, you can simply uninstall the app altogether by right-clicking its icon and selecting "Remove from Chrome."
Once you have the access code and are ready to connect, simply go to remotedesktop.google.com/support within Chrome on any other computer. Enter the access code in the "Give Support" box and then click the "Connect" button to begin.
I had this issue because of an old program that used the remote desktop feature, and nothing I tried stopped the popup from showing on startup. I don't want the permission to be enabled, so enabling it isn't an option for me.
I finally figured out that the modern system for services is called systemd and is operated with the systemctl command. Using systemctl status I got a list of every running service. From there, it was easy to identify that the service I was looking for was chrome-remote-desktop@myusername.
Say I was using Chrome Remote Desktop and remotely killed the host process on accident, causing me to get kicked off. However I still have SSH/terminal/command-line access. How can I relaunch the service so I can connect again?
Chrome Remote Desktop is a remote desktop software tool, developed by Google, that allows a user to remotely control another computer's desktop through a proprietary protocol also developed by Google, internally called Chromoting.[2][3] The protocol transmits the keyboard and mouse events from the client to the server, relaying the graphical screen updates back in the other direction over a computer network. This feature, therefore, consists of a server component for the host computer, and a client component on the computer accessing the remote server. Chrome Remote Desktop uses a unique protocol, as opposed to using the common Remote Desktop Protocol (developed by Microsoft[4]).
The Chrome Remote Desktop client was originally a Chrome extension from the Chrome Web Store requiring Google Chrome; the extension is deprecated, and a web portal is available at remotedesktop.google.com. The browser must support WebRTC and other unspecified "modern web platform features".[5] The client software is also available on Android[6] and iOS.[7]
If the computer hosts remote access, such as for remote support and system administration,[8] a server package is downloaded.[9] A Chromium-based browser that supports Chromium extensions such as Google Chrome or Microsoft Edge must be used. This is available for Microsoft Windows, OS X, Linux and ChromeOS.[10]
The Chrome Remote Desktop allows a permanent, pre-authorized connection to a remote computer, designed to allow a user to connect to another one of their own machines remotely.[11] In contrast, Remote Assistance is designed for short-lived remote connections, and requires an operator on the remote computer to participate in authentication, as remote assistance login is via PIN passwords generated by the remote host's human operator. This method of connection will also periodically block out the control from the connecting user, requiring the person on the host machine to click a button to "Continue sharing" with the connected client.[citation needed]
I use Chrome Remote Desktop as a convenient way to access my desktop while traveling. From time to time it will have issues that require restarting the PC remotely. However, Chrome Remote Desktop will not start automatically after rebooting. Thankfully I can SSH into the PC and start it manually with CRD --restart but I would like to avoid that process as it depends on a VPN connection and a few extra steps.
i have a PA VM-200. I've used the built-in 'chrome-remote-desktop' protocol, and doesn't work. The description seems to say this protocol is in BETA and is for the support function fo the chrome-remote-desktop.
Chrome Remote Desktop is fully cross-platform. Provide remote assistance to Windows, Mac and Linux users, or access your Windows (XP and above) and Mac (OS X 10.6 and above) desktops at any time, all from the Chrome browser on virtually any device, including Chromebooks.
It works well, for a while. Eventually [after a week or 3] the host stops responding to a remote connect request, although it still shows as online in my list of devices. I can access those PCs another way [always have a plan B, and sometimes a plan C], and the service is still running. Restarting the service fixes the problem. This happens repeatedly on many or all of these PCs. On a few that I access a lot I run a scheduled task that restarts the service once a day: . This solves it.
and just run it; the old ver is removed. You can do that while connected to a remote PC with chrome RD. This works even on a system that does not have any flavor of Chromium installed. Did this fix my problem? I will know in a few weeks if none of my systems fail to connect.
After the service has been started the victim system will come online within about a minute. At which point the attacker can login and have an interactive desktop session with the compromised host. Chromoting acts similarly to VNC in the sense that if a user is already logged on they will not be disrupted as they would be with traditional remote desktop. Chromoting does however display a message that the desktop is currently being shared. This message can be moved to the edge of the screen which would make it nearly invisible to users that are not looking for it.
I was planning on setting up a remote desktop for him so I could do tech support from my home. Now due to corona I'll have to do that remotely and talk my parents through it on the phone. Chrome Remote Desktop seems to be the most obvious candidate because it saves having to talk him through forwarding ports by phone. So that's the route I'll be taking for now.
Once I'm in though, I wonder if there's a better Remote desktop host I can set up. I understand VNC doesn't play nice with pantheon. Is there a remote desktop host or server for Elementary that you can recommend?
UPDATE: I just successfully managed to remote in using chrome remote desktop. The connection was there, although laggy and crappy. My parent's wifi being less than great wasn't helping much. Still very much open to hearing about a better way.
Chrome Remote Desktop supports two distinct setups: Always-allowed access or one-time access. The first configuration lets you connect to a system any time. This configuration works well for systems you control that are often (or always) powered on, such as as a desktop (or server). The second setup supports temporary remote access to a system with a one-time code. This option gives you a great way to handle remote support or troubleshooting.
Connections work across platforms. You can control a remote system either with an app (on Android or iOS), or from the Chrome browser (on Chrome OS, Windows, macOS, or Linux). And you can install the Chrome Remote Desktop host software on most systems that run Windows 7 (or more recent), macOS 10.9 (or more current), or modern Linux distributions. A system running any of those operating systems can serve as a host, from which you can share the screen.

@truncs I was able to successfully start chrome-rem...@user.service after I modified xorg_binary (line 1447). Arch installs Xorg in /usr/lib/Xorg whereas debian installs it in /usr/lib/xorg/Xorg.
