[Pointers to a better list welcome.] I'm able to ssh into a remote machine, and once connected I want to enable vino-server.
On Ubuntu I can use the System->Preferences->Remote Desktop to enable the vino-server. But, if I use gconftool-2 to toggle the enable/disable key it sometimes doesn't change. Doesn't help me if I only have ssh access. $ sudo netstat -tnlp | grep vino tcp6 0 0 :::5900 :::* LISTEN 6351/vino-server $ gconftool-2 -s -t bool /desktop/gnome/remote_access/enabled false $ sudo netstat -tnlp | grep vino tcp6 0 0 :::5900 :::* LISTEN 6351/vino-server Yet, on another machine I'm able to toggle it: mose...@bumby2:~$ sudo netstat -tnlp | grep vino tcp6 0 0 :::5900 :::* LISTEN 31503/vino-server mose...@bumby2:~$ gconftool-2 -s -t bool /desktop/gnome/remote_access/enabled false mose...@bumby2:~$ sudo netstat -tnlp | grep vino mose...@bumby2:~$ Does using the Gnome menu to enable the remote desktop server do something more than just toggle the gconf setting? Is there a trick to running vino-server from the command line (once I ssh in)?
