Connecting to Rasbian Raspberry Pi VNC from macOS Screen Sharing

Connected to VNC on a Raspberry Pi from a Mac

Trying to use the Mac’s built in Screen Sharing.app, I was getting the message: “The software on the remote computer appears to be incompatible with this version of Screen Sharing.” I’ve fought this fight on other platforms. Amazing it was this simple. Followed these instructions (with the exception that my RPi has no monitor attached to it; if you find you need one, maybe a dummy plug will work?):

geek@raspberrypi:~$ sudo -i
root@raspberrypi:~# raspi-config

3 Boot Options

B1 Desktop / CLI

B4 Desktop Autologin

5 Interfacing Options

P3 VNC

Would you like the VNC Server to be enabled? <Yes>

root@raspberrypi:~# vncpasswd -service

Setting "Password" VNC parameter for Service Mode server
Password:
Verify:
Successfully set "Password" VNC parameter in /root/.vnc/config.d/vncserver-x11
root@raspberrypi:~# vim /etc/vnc/config.d/common.custom

Authentication=VncAuth

root@raspberrypi:~# systemctl restart vncserver-x11-serviced
