Hello All,

I have a few simple questions for you, and I am working from root.

1.) When I try to make a global change to the PATH statement in the rc.local
file and export it, the new global path has not changed. Do the security levels
affect this? Where do I make a change to the PATH statement so that it is
affected for ALL users?

2.) With the old Mandrake, I would simply put the VNC files into the
/usr/local/bin directory and modify the global PATH to reflect this.

the files moved are: Xvnc, vncviewer, vncserver, vncconnect, vncpasswd

The purpose is explained below and the RPM version is generally removed from
the system.

The general goal is to allow the Xvnc to be started by the inetd.conf file so
that when any number of users connect to the desired port then they can login
to the graphical screen of KDM, for example. This allows any user to be able to
concurrently use XServer and KDE from any vncviewer running on any platform.

3.) We would generally append the attached files to the specified config file.
For example: append the "services.append" to /ect/services file

4.) Then simply restart the system and everything should be working just fine.
then just start up the "vncviewer &" and give it an address
"my.local.adder:port" where port is from the "services" file.

Also, could someone please tell me how to restart the inetd daemon without
having to re-boot?

These are some simple problems that I am having to get VNC installed properly
on 8.0.

Cheers,
Lonnie Cumberland
