Acces to the remote via the internet requires firewall configuration.

Good docs on installing on a variety of distros

TeamViewer provides rpm (RedHat, CentOS, Fedora, SUSE ) and deb (Debian, Mint, Ubuntu, Kubuntu, Xubuntu) packages along with installation instructions for those distributions. An archive that contains only the files without an installer is available and can be run without installation as long as the dependencies are available.
