I forgot my vnc password I was wondering how I can reset / change the password if I am unable to log into the vnc?
I am able to ssh into the ec2 instance.

I tried the first option in the following thread, to no avail. Using version: 16.04lts-161214-170114

Hi,

The original method should still work, i.e., /usr/bin/vncpasswd -f > /opt/netspectrum/aws/ubuntu-desktop/passwd. Give it a try.

In any case you can invoke the setup script as follows from a SSH session.

The setup script worked! Thanks!

Code: Select all

sudo su

You're a life saver, I'm another dumbo that forgot my password lol.
