Reference tutorial here: here

  1. Install nano, tigervnc-standalone-server and autocutsel:
    sudo apt install nano tigervnc-standalone-server autocutsel
  2. Set a password for the VNC server:
    vncpasswd
  3. Create the file ~/.vnc/xstartup using nano:
    nano ~/.vnc/xstartup
  4. Edit with the following content: 
    !/bin/sh
export XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=/run/user/1000
export XKL_XMODMAP_DISABLE=1
unset SESSION_MANAGER
unset DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS
xrdb $HOME/.Xresources
xsetroot -solid grey
# copy/paste enablement
vncconfig -nowin &
autocutsel -forkgnome-session &
startlxde &
  5. Save and exit nano: Ctrl+o (o as in Oscar) to save, press Enter to continue, then Ctrl+x to exit
  6. Make xstartup executable:
    chmod +x ~/.vnc/xstartup
  7. Check if .Xresources exists:
    ls -al ~/.Xresources
  8. If it does not exist, create it:
    touch ~/.Xresources
  9. Create a service to make VNC server start automatically:
    sudo nano /etc/systemd/system/vncserver@.service
  10. Open VNC conf file:
    sudo nano /etc/vnc.conf
  11. Check if $localhost = "no"; is NOT commented.
  12. Create a service to make VNC server start automatically:
    sudo nano /etc/systemd/system/vncserver@.service
  13. Add the following content, and replace <username> by your username : 
    [Unit]
Description=Start TigerVNC Server at startup
After=syslog.target network.target

[Service]
Type=forking
User=<username>
Group=<username>
WorkingDirectory=/home/<username>
PIDFile=/home/<username>/.vnc/%H:%i.pid
ExecStartPre=-/usr/bin/vncserver -kill :%i > /dev/null 2>&1
ExecStart=/usr/bin/vncserver :%i -depth 24 -geometry 1920x1080 -nolisten tcp
ExecStop=/usr/bin/vncserver -kill :%i

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
  14. Save and exit nano: Ctrl+o (o as in Oscar) to save, press Enter to continue, then Ctrl+x to exit
  15. Load the new service:
    sudo systemctl daemon-reload
    sudo systemctl enable vncserver@1
    sudo systemctl start vncserver@1
