I need to connect to a workstation from a personal machine but don't have any luck with it. The workstation is also Ubuntu 14.04.

My personal machine: Remmina 0.9.99.1, Ubuntu 14.04.

The window I get stuck with is saying it's trying to connect.

Help, please?

EDIT: Trying to access a remote machine via remote desktop. I can ssh to it with no problem.

The rest of the config.

  What kind of connection are you trying to achieve? Simple ssh console access? Remote Desktop?... It seems to me you are selecting the wrong protocol, but just to bee sure tell exactly what you want to to and paste your remmina config, please

Check out this post and double check the configuration of the remote system allows vnc connections:

setup Remmina for remote desktop connection

In order to be able to use Remmina, you need first to activate certain
options of the "Desktop Sharing" screen (Bash -> Desktop Sharing) on
both computers:

On the Desktop Sharing Preferences:

• Activate the option "Allow other users to view your desktop"


• Activate
  the option "Allow other users to control your desktop"

Only activate the following if you are not trying to configure unattended access:

For security's sake, also:

• Activate the option "You must confirm each access to this machine"


• Activate the option "Require the user to enter this password" and
  provide a password

Once the configuration is done, you can simply open
Remmina, create a new connection and specify the connection to the
other computer using VNC (virtual network computing) protocol and
using the password you used in the "Desktop Sharing" screen.

Hint: You can ignore the field "user".

Try it first without SSH and, if it works, then start playing with tunneling.
