noVNC - Utilities
What is noVNC?
There are many VNC clients available on Linux, differing in their capabilities and operating system support. If you are looking for a cross-platform VNC client, you have two options: use either Java-based VNC viewers (e.g., RealVNC or TightVNC), or web-based VNC clients. VNC web clients are typically faster than Java-based VNC viewers, and could easily be integrated into other third-party applications.
noVNC is an HTML5-based remote desktop web client which can communicate with a remote VNC server via Web Sockets. Using noVNC, you can control a remote computer in a web browser over VNC. noVNC has been integrated into a number of other projects including OpenStack, OpenNebula, CloudSigma, Amahi and PocketVNC.

How can i use noVNC?
noVNC is only useful in case there is some missconfiguration on your VPS Server (Eg: Network Missconfiguration) etc...
We highly recommend using an SSH Client for Linux & RDP for Windows. Otherwise, there is no reason for using noVNC.
However. We can access noVNC with the following steps:
Step 1:
Login to your PetroSky Client Area then select the Server you would like to access it's noVNC

A new window will open containing the noVNC Console as the following screenshot:
