From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Hi all, first post here having moved from Red....

I have a Nuc running on my network currently running pihole, all good. Plus I can putty into it fine. However, I cannot connect via VNC or see the folders from other devices. Ideally I want to run Jellyfin on it as well, but based on lack of access I think I will have problems. Ideas very much appreciated.

VNC is a graphical tool to show a desktop GUI and is far from needed to show the contents of the filsystem. Do you even have a GUI installed on it and, if it's supposed to act as a server, why would you want to?
