HOWTO: install Remmina on CentOS 8 stream

Remmina is a remote access screen and file sharing to your desktop. I need to access to a lot of computers. One can think that we can work with any VNC client, but sometimes it’s not enough. So here’s the official installation documentation and below you have my installation log. Step by step:

~]# dnf install epel-release

I will now come back to write about the last book I finish, that I will backpost, since I like to have the book reviews published on Wednesdays. Actually I’m kind of losing my mood to write again. We will see if it comes back, as usual it does.
