FreeRDP: A Remote Desktop Protocol Implementation
https://remmina.org/
The promise behind this sounds like the holy grail of Remote Access.
Is it Linux-only for the clients? Or can you use Mac or Windows to reach it?

"I need to test something on a Mac real quick", as solved by AWS EC2
Next up, we need some sort of VNC client on our workstation. I strongly recommend Remmina if you value not spending your time debugging and configuring things. Just select "VNC" from the main connection bar's dropdown, punch in localhost:5900, and hit enter. An authentication screen will pop up: fill it with ec2-user for the username, and whatever password you provided to dscl earlier.

Dualbooting windows vs. virtual machine vs. remote vm
I would try out a Windows VM on your home server and use the RDP protocol to connect to it with https://remmina.org/ or https://wiki.gnome.org/Apps/Vinagre . (Will need a Windows Pro version for enabling remote access with RDP.)

Go To Software/Tools for Programmers
On linux I use remmina to do basically the same thing. I actually think remmina is better, it's really too bad it's linux only.

GUI Control, fedora to fedora
You can use RDP, it's already installed in Fedora. (Assuming Gnome/Wayland), you go to Settings > Sharing, and enable Remote Desktop. It'll generate a new password for access by default. I only use with MS Remote Desktop from a Mac, but I think people generally like Remmina as a client.

Good alternative to mRemoteNG
MobaXterm on Windows or Remmina on Linux. Remmina should also work on Windows through WSL. Though haven't tested it that way

MeshCentral Server Migration - Creating Duplicate LDAP Accounts
We have copied an migrated an IDENTICAL Mesh Central installation to another Linux server. The LDAP environment has the same groups, users and permissions. Yet when we login with the same user as before it ignores the existing user and creates a new one.I've created an issue on Github because it seems this is a bug but was wondering if anyone else on this group may have run into this and has an idea of what the problem might be...
