Asked to create a new bug from https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-remote-desktop/+bug/2063333
I am on a completely headless system starting from a minimal ubuntu-server 24.04 installation.
I have installed the desktop using apt install ubuntu-desktop
I want to use the new gnome-remote-desktop so that I can create a developer machine in a VM environment that can be accessed through a thin client using Microsoft RDP
I suspect there is some missing documentation.
Starting the service using systemctl start gnome-remote-desktop.service
results in:
journalctl -xeu gnome-remote-desktop.service

Running sudo systemd-sysusers does create some new users, restarting the remote desktop now gives:
