RE: DISPLAY problem
The one box runs openview + vncserver [hostname1] The other box runs nethealth only without vncserver [hostname2] [at my windows machine] when I double click the vnc icon and login ,I get the hpxterm view as if I am using the HP-xterm to view openview. I inside vnc i opened a second session and telnet to the nethealth machine [hostname2] export the display to openview + vncserver [hostname1] with command 'export DISPLAY=hostname1:0' error can't DISPLAY hostname1:0 How to I export the display from nethealth box [hostname2] to the openview box [hostname2] were both openview and vncserver are currently running. -Original Message- From: Beerse, Corni [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 20 August 2003 12:11 To: Muzi Nkosi; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: DISPLAY problem -Original Message- From: Muzi Nkosi [ HYPERLINK mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] I have a vncserver running on a HP-UX machine (openveview is also running on this machine).

4.0b3: idle timeout
I've been seeing the idle timeout trigger after only a few seconds. I'm not sure that 15s is long enough for an authentication phase on a slow link. It isn't really clear to me what the purpose of IdleTimeout is actually. Is it for cleaning up stale connections? Wouldn't a keepalive method work more reliably for that?

Re: VNC2SWF
I was thinking it would be cool if the VNC client/server distributed came with the ability to store Shockwave/Flash files from sessions, this would be particularly useful in the area of making tutorials of applications. On the other hand you could use CamStudio which is excellent (although it's Windoze only). The software is open source and will record to just about any codec you have on your PC as well as converting the file to SWF. http://www.ehelp.com/camstudio/product/screenrecording/ Regards, Richard - Richard Harris Environment Nottinghamshire County Council Ext: 4509 - This email and any files transmitted with it are confidential and intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to whom they are addressed.

Re: Running Scan from gotomyvnc.com
Dave: Heya. So...exactly what is the make and model on your DSL modem/router? And...can you open a web-browser and connect to it with http://ip.address.of.router;? -Scott Heya. That's sort of the point of the scan: a lot of VNC users have setups similar to yours wherein the IP address that a VNC Viewer should use to connect to your VNC Server is *not* the same IP address as the PC on which the server is running. Something along the way (either, as you say, at the ISP or in the router) is performing Network Address Translation or NAT. So while NAT is fundamental to getting mass-market home networks working, it makes remote-access solutions more problematic. So I coded up this scan to help VNC users know where to look when it comes to getting their connections to work. The IP Address that you see on that scan page is the IP address that the real world sees your packets are coming from, and so is the address that VNC Viewer users should use to connect to your server. cheers, Scott On Sat, 16 Aug 2003, Dave Clark wrote: I did this and it reported the IP address generated by someone or something -- probably either my ISP or the DSL modem/router -- and NOT this machine. Still cannot connect to work machine from home. Have Black Ice firewall running on the home machine.

VNC is easy to mod. Open source is good.
I just wanted to shout a Thank You to the developers of this great software. I work for a market research call center and one of the most important parts of our business is monitoring the agents to ensure accurate work. We have 150 workstations which need to be monitored from over a dozen supervisor stations. My boss was looking at spending thousands of dollars for commercial software when I decided to demonstrate VNC. (I am the office Linux/open source advocate.) The software performs exceptionally and because it is open source, I was able to modify it to more perfectly suit our needs than anything we could have purchased. Martin Glaude, Senior IT Supervisor [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- For the curious here are the simple changes that I've made: In the server app, I made a small tweak to stop the system tray icon from flashing when a client connects. In the client app, I made two changes: - The View Only setting is hardcoded to prevent the QA staff from accidently interferring with the agent computer. - The connection dialog box has been replaced with a list box which reads a list of descriptive names/ip addresses from a shared network drive, making it easy for our users to select the computer they want to monitor. ___ VNC-List mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] To remove yourself from the list visit: http://www.realvnc.com/mailman/listinfo/vnc-list
Opening a session in text mode
Hi, I'm Christian from France. I installed VNC on py PC because the Linux server that 'im working on is in a very hot room (no clim). I'm trying to open a window in command line mode ie without opening a X-session window. How to do ? I tried to delete or change the file X-startup but without any result Thank you for your help, Christian. ___ VNC-List mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] To remove yourself from the list visit: http://www.realvnc.com/mailman/listinfo/vnc-list
force low speed connection
I am running 3.3.7 server is win98 client is linux debian unstable. When I first connect to the server it runs fine but after a 15-60 seconds updates dont seem to happen and I need to move the mouse all around the screen to get it to redraw it. I am guessing the problem is the link is not fast enought. Does this sounds right? How can I force vnc (from the client side) to run so it uses as little bw as possible. I dont really care what it looks like as long as it is fast. thanks Paonia ___ VNC-List mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] To remove yourself from the list visit: http://www.realvnc.com/mailman/listinfo/vnc-list
