This guide explains how to enable and access the VNC console for your VPS using the VirtFusion control panel. VNC allows you to connect to your server as if you were sitting directly in front of it.

This is especially useful if:

  • Your VPS is not accessible via SSH or Remote Desktop
  • You need to troubleshoot boot issues
  • You need to access the server during installation
  • You want direct console access to your VPS

Step 1 — Login to the Client Area

  1. Open your browser
  2. Go to the VM6 client area
  3. Enter your account login details
  4. Click Login

Step 2 — Open Your VPS

  1. Go to Client Menu
  2. Select My Services
  3. Click your VPS service

Step 3 — Open the VPS Control Panel

Inside your VPS service page, click the button:

Open VPS Control Panel

This will open the VirtFusion management interface for your VPS.

Step 4 — Go to the Options Tab

At the top of the VirtFusion control panel you will see several tabs:

  • Overview
  • Media
  • Options
  • Network
  • Storage
  • Backups
  • Sharing

Click the Options tab.

Step 5 — Enable VNC Access

Inside the Options section you will see the VNC control panel.

Click the button:

Enable VNC Access

This will generate a temporary VNC session for your server.

Step 6 — View the VNC Connection Details

Once enabled, VirtFusion will display your VNC session information including:

  • IP Address
  • Port
  • Password

You will also see two options:

  • Browser VNC
  • Disable VNC Access

Step 7 — Open Browser VNC

The easiest way to connect is using the built-in browser console.

  1. Click Browser VNC
  2. A new window will open
  3. Your VPS console will appear

You now have full console access to your server.

What You Can Do with VNC

Using the VNC console you can:

  • Access the server login screen
  • Fix networking issues
  • Recover from firewall lockouts
  • Install operating systems
  • Troubleshoot boot problems

This is the same as being physically connected to the server.

Security Notice

VirtFusion displays an important warning when enabling VNC:

VNC access is not encrypted.

This means someone on the network could potentially monitor the connection.

For this reason we recommend:

  • Only enable VNC when needed
  • Disable VNC access once finished

How to Disable VNC Access

Once finished using the console:

  1. Return to the Options tab
  2. Click Disable VNC Access

This closes the VNC session and improves security.

Summary

VirtFusion makes it easy to access your VPS console using the built-in VNC feature. This provides a powerful recovery tool if your server becomes inaccessible via SSH or Remote Desktop.

Remember to disable VNC access once finished for better security.
