March 10, 20188 yr I tried UnRAID's built-in browser-based VNC setup and it has significant issues on OS X (cursor not synced upon initial access and upon waking VM from sleep), limited resolution (changing display size in Ubuntu freezes startup/restart unless I switch the graphics mode to vmvga, but that introduces performance issues and other errors). I also tried Microsoft RDP by logging in with Xorg but it, too, has significant errors: constant "problem encountered" dialogs asking to submit to developers, generic application icons, and now the File Browser no longer seeming to launch. So I'm looking for a stable, trouble-free VNC setup that allows higher resolutions than the UnRAIDs built-in VNC.
March 10, 20188 yr Try unRAID 6.5 currently available as RC, it has a much improved VNC implementation. Really works like a charm.

Well, I just tried v6.5 VNC Remote for my Ubuntu 17.10 under two OS's and four browsers: 1) Win10/Edge = missing cursor 2) Win10/Chrome = big black square cursor, the size of typical icons 3) Win10/Firefox = missing cursor 4) OS X 10.13.4/Safari = missing cursor And it still doesn't address the inability to effectively change the screen resolution. I'm sticking with MS RDP/Xorg for now after installing an interface utility that has at least allowed me to "restore" Wayland themes, icons, and other GUI functionality to the Xorg display server.
April 13, 20188 yr I had the same issues with the cursor going away once it crosses over the VNC view but I can finally see the cursor again in 6.5.1-rc5
