Ok, like I said, I'm looking for some help getting VNC to work on my linux box. Here's the scoop as it stands.
However in spite of all this, I can still not login to VNC, nore can I go the other way and initiate the connection from the server to a listening client. I'm only comming up with one of two possibilities. 1) I've missed something important, or maybe there is something on the linux box that is preventing me from connecting, like a firewall, though I can connect using SSH, so unless it blocked some ports but not all..... ?? Any suggestions? (edited by Yarx on 08-22-04 12:46 AM) |

Yarx, I am running a VNC Server on my webserver (this server) with an entire full X-Windows session running..... This is how you have to connect with your viewing client hostname:1 or IP:1 when connecting to a linux machine you HAVE to specify the session number. Because putting :1 tells the client to connect to 5901 instead of 5900 In windows there are no "sessions" and it's just 5800 / 5900 likewise if you want to connect through a web browser you have to go to http://hostname:5801 or http://ip:5801 as you again, have to connect to 5801 instead of 5800 Catch me on IM sometime, and I will tell you how to get it to run a full xwindows session, instead of the crappy shell it runs by default (edited by Colonel Hogan on 08-23-04 01:22 PM) (edited by Colonel Hogan on 08-23-04 01:23 PM) |
