Browse source 
Although sys-gui (and its variants sys-gui-gpu and sys-gui-vnc) are clearly marked to be used by advanced users only, there are some limitations that may go beyond the expectations of an advanced user.

> **WARNING**: This setup raises multiple security issues: 1) Anyone who can reach the `VNC` server, can take over the control of the Qubes OS machine, 2) A second client can connect even if a connection is already active and potentially get disconnected, 3) You can get disconnected by some unrelated network issues. Generally, if this `VNC` server is exposed to open network, it must be protected with some other (cryptographic) layer like `VPN`. The setup as is, is useful only for purely testing machine.
