Can someone provide me a tutorial where I can install a nice GUI onto my dedicated server which is running Debian. I would also appreciate being shown how to connect to it

dont use team view just connect using a RDP if that's what you want but tbh you most likely dont even need a gui you can do everything really through ssh and ftp
Install xinit and xserver utilities; you'll have to google.
Choose your WM (I recommend Openbox or for DE use Gnome) Code sudo apt-get install gnomeadd Code exec gnome-sessionto the xinitrc which should be in home folder after following xinit installation instructions. I think you'll need VNC Server for this to login to a desktop remotely on linux

True what the last server said is necessary basically
#1. Install an xorg-xserver metapackage which is most likely available in some name or for #2. Install. Xinit /xorg-xinit which is usually separate #3. Choose your desktop environment and install the meta package preferably. (Lxde, gnome, xfce, kde etc) #4. Make a file called ~/.xinitrc and inside it type the lines exec startlxde (for lxde ) change the instructions for different Wm environment etc. Then just type startx to start desktop. As for remotely. .. Ssh is so much better than rdp or vnc. Wouldn't really bother with gui remotely.. but you could. (May 8, 2016 05:27 AM)CorrosiveBlueberry Wrote: As for remotely. ..
