+## VNC options
+
+The VNC options in this script allow you to connect 
+
+To do this you must run QVM with one of the VNC option on the server side.
+On the client side you simply edit the `host_ip_address` and `host_username` 
+variables configuration file.
+
+For example, on the server side we could install the virtual machine remotely 
+like this:
+
+    $ ./qvm --install-vnc
+
+And on the client side:
+
+    $ ./qvm -r
