What you seem to want is a solution that will remotely share the physical display of macOS, Windows, and Linux machines.  That isn't what TurboVNC does.  TurboVNC's primary purpose is to provide high-speed on-demand remote access for Linux/Un*x technical computing applications, particularly 3D or video applications, running on large-scale multi-user shared servers that typically don't even have physical displays.  We don't provide a macOS or Windows server at all, and our Linux server is a multi-session virtual X server, not a single-session "screen scraper" that would allow you to share the physical display.

Hi,

I always did IT support on location for my extended family for the last decade. I am currently abroad and cannot visit due to the current travel restrictions :(

So I am looking to do the computer support remotely. My family has Windows and OSX equally and one runs Linux.

1st hurdle: Install. I would prefer telling them to open a console and paste in a single command to download and install TurboVNC. Done. Also the server should be available after restart. Is all of this possible? (I could host tailor-made install packages if this would help)

2nd hurdle: connect via the internet. I only used TurboVNC in my LAN so I have no clue how it works? How to get the IP of my families PCs to connect to? Is there a good guide on how to do this? What different options one has (direct, ssh, etc.)? How to retrieve the server IP? Router problems, etc.
