Thats when you realize VNC sessions are not linked to Linux user authentication but relies on a single password (one of VNC insecurity problems)! You can later change that password using the vncpasswd command. The first time you run vncserver, it prompts for a password (8 char max). We started an X session on display port 1, note that by default vncserver will attempt to start on display 0 which is already taken by the started Kali session used for local access We will make a first run of VncServer to generate configuration files and VNC password.

Install Autocutsel package to enable cut&paste between client and server:Īpt-get install autocutsel II.2 First run The host keys must be changed by running:Īlso you should use certificate authentication for SSH or at least change the default password (toor) for the Kali root user. Warning: As stated by Kali Official Documentation all Kali Arm images are configured with the same SSH host key. I used Xubuntu as the client OS but any other are possible provided they support SSH tunneling and you can install a VNC client. The Raspberry Pi will act as SSH and VNC server. SSH server must be available and running on the Raspberry Pi. The device must be connected to the Internet to install the required packages and be network accessible to the PC or phone where you install the VNC client. For that look at instruction on the Kali Official Documentation I personally installed Kali 2 on Raspberry Pi 3. Prerequisitesįirst you need to have a running Kali or other Debian based Linux distribution installed on Raspberry PI. I wanted to install VNC and I found it quite complicated to get the information I needed to be able to do so in a secure and nice way. I wrote this how-to because I lastly decided to install and run Kali Linux from a Raspberry Pi. This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License.
