VNC / noVNC Console

The VNC console (accessible via browser through noVNC) lets you see and interact with the server directly, as if you had a physical monitor attached. Works even when SSH is inaccessible.

• You accidentally blocked firewall
• Server hasn't completed boot correctly
• Want to see kernel boot messages

2. Select your server

Using the Console

Console works like a terminal: you see server output and can type commands.

Tips:

• If screen is black, press Enter: there might just be a cursor waiting for input
• If you see login prompt, enter root then password
• To paste text, use the Clipboard button in console bar (direct mouse paste doesn't work in all browsers)
• You can resize window by clicking Fullscreen

Console Won't Open or is Slow

• Disable browser extensions that might interfere with WebSocket
