I'm not familiar with Remmina but I'm guessing it is a GUI to setup a remote X-windows. Depending on your needs, it may be overkill. I use openssh/sftp as a simple way to access/file transfer between devices on my home network.

Web search also come up with detailed instructions on running remote X-windows:

If it absolutely has to be Remmina, I'll bow out and let someone familiar w/ Remmina step in.

Thank you for the post.
I really don't care what GUI is used just as long as I can connect to the desktop from anther desktop.

And

I don't want to use RDP

Thank again.

Simpler to use x11vnc:
https://packages.debian.org/buster/x11vnc

Information here will give you what you need, even though it is a little dated:

And if for some reason you have to deal with wayland, though you shouldn't with XFCE:

You can't believe your eyes if your imagination is out of focus.
