Remote Desktop on Linux using NICE DCV (CPU)
Overview
This is a Linux remote workstation based on NICE DCV. After starting, users can use a graphical interface directly through a browser or NICE DCV client to remotely access and easily start visual office on the cloud. Remote Desktop is cloud-based, so users can use it from their office, home, or anywhere with an internet connection. NICE DCV is a high-performance remote display protocol that provides users with a secure and efficient way to transfer remote desktops to local devices, and can be used free of charge on Amazon Web Services EC2. This image comes pre-installed with the NICE DCV server-side software and is configured to automatically start the software and session, helping users save time and effort from manual installation and configuration.
Combined with the pre-installed NICE DCV server-side software, users can directly start using the Linux remote desktop function without configuration after starting the instance.
Highlights
- There are no additional licensing fees on top of the licensed NICE DCV software.
- It works right out of the box, so you can start using cloud desktops right out of the box with no additional software or configuration required.
- All x86 series instances are supported.

Usage instructions
Instructions for use: Users can use this AMI to launch an EC2 instance, and no other configuration is required to launch a remote desktop. Users can access it in their browser at https://实例公有IP地址或域名:8443#my-session ; or download the NICE DCV client (https://download.nice-dcv.com/ )输入实例公有IP地址或域名进行访问. The user name for access is dcv-user, and the password is the ID of the instance.
Launching this AMI through Marketplace will automatically configure security group policies and open port 8443. If you need to improve security, you can limit the allowed IP sources for port 8443 in the security group. For details, you can use the following document: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/zh_cn/AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/authorizing-access-to-an-instance.html
dcvserver and dcvsession are already running as system services and are set to run automatically when the instance starts. If you need to change the password, log in to the instance and modify the last line in the /usr/bin/dcvsession.sh file to modify the password for the Linux user dcv-user.
