Hello, I get the error message on my Ubuntu 20.04 as soon as I go to a VM console "noVNC".

Connection was refused for the following reason: Authentication failed

hi,

does it work from a different browser? (you can try in incognito mode)
 
can you provide more details?
accessing novnc with chromium based browser works here on the latest versions.

please tell us your:
* pveversion -v
* chromium version

also did you customize your /etc/ssh/sshd_config file? does it have this line:
Code:
AcceptEnv LANG LC_*
in it?
 
Plus the directive
Code:
SendEnv LC_PVE_TICKET
in /etc/ssh/ssh_config if you hardened the ssh client as well.
