Lubuntu (ubuntu 18.04.6) no tray icon to start licensing
I've decided I like realnvc which I first installed on a family members laptop to help them out as they are elderly (linux mint 20.1) . I'm now trying to use it instead of chrome remote to administer my vps, but the tray icon will not appear for me to add this to my account/team. I can't seem to do this without the gui.
Any thoughts?

Hi,
The first thing to check is that VNC Server is running, by running: sudo systemctl enable vncserver-x11-serviced --now
This will start VNC Server and enable it to start automatically after a reboot. Once running, you should see the VNC Server tray icon.
Hi,
Thanks for the reply. It takes me a bit to get some time to reply.
Ran command. No icon. Rebooted no icon. There is an icon on the menu but nothing happens when I click it except it asks for my system password.
I found in /usr/share/applications four VNCservice files. I ran each and on finally popped up the vncconnect windows and the icon appeared. I did not get the option to enter my username etc to add it to my team. In messages I get VNC server in user mode requires and enterprise subscription/You must apply an Enterprise subscription in order to run VNC Server in User Mode.
I'm sure I've done something wrong, but it went fine on 2 linux mint. Maybe it's because this one is lubuntu 18.04.6 LTS?
