I get trouble to use virtualbox remote screen on a linux host. I activated server in settings->display->remotedisplay and the port is 33333.
Then on linux I do : $ rdesktop 127.0.0.1:33333
Autoselected keyboard map en-us
ERROR: 127.0.0.1: unable to connect
I have read info here http://www.virtualbox.org/manual/ch07.html. I tryed various connections addresses like localhost and my local IP, and checked netstat, port scanning.
I removed the firewall.
Also tryed to start the vm headless. and still can't connect
Here is more info, Thanks for your help in advance
