How to use Anydesk to connect to remote network with low bandwidth usage
Anydesk is usually used for accessing remote desktop, viz. the entire GUI shell. This, however, uses a lot of data.
If one wants to simply run commands remotely, then it's more efficient to use SSH by using Anydesk's TCP tunneling feature. TCP tunnelling also gives access to remote's network provided a SQUID web proxy is running @ remote, thus setting up a VPN effectively. Anydesk offers only one TCP tunneling in its FREE license.
To set up SSH, for example, to a Remote Linux server do the following:
Setup Anydesk server in remote. Make sure Create TCP tunnels is checked in Settings > Permissions.
Open Anydesk client in your Windows computer.
Sign in to your Anydesk Account, otherwise TCP tunneling would be greyed out.
alias x="nautilus ${PWD}" ; so that file explorer opens in current directory with command x
alias ls="ls -lt"
Seup git config name and email at your server
Setup terminal preferences
Networking
Expose server with tunnel. Make use of cron: crontab -e > @reboot tunnel -l /tmp/tunnel.log 22 and */1 * * * * tunnel -l /tmp/tunnel.log 22. Use tunnel because it is more or less portable and doesn't require sudo priviledge. Just install a portable socat in the same directory as tunnel (e.g. ~/.bin), if needed.
At your home-pc/laptop (client) setup a cronjob or add to ~/.bashrc : flock -n /tmp/tunnel.log tunnel -b <port> -l /tmp/tunnel.log <server-kid>:22

Setting up VNC for controlling remote desktop / screen sharing
In this tutorial we shall setup VNC such that we can remotely access a Linux desktop (Ubuntu 20.04) from a Windows 10 laptop.
The Ubuntu desktop hosts the VNC server, whereas the Windows machine hosts the client.
