After some more analysis, I could confirm that the issue relates to uPNP. It never succeeds setting uPNP on my router/DSL box (an Orange "LiveBox"), but if I uncheck the uPNP checkbox, then vino opens up immediately and works... on the LAN.
As a side note, the uPNP issue does not relate to the router, as Skype or my son's games have no problem opening ports using uPNP on the same router box... -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1610547 Title: Cannot connect to remote desktop, vino not answering To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/vino/+bug/1610547/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
