You need to install X server from your distro or google for it. We use SuSE9 and it has X server available for install but I have chosen not to use it. After the install, from your shell, you do something like 'startx' (that is what I used in Slackware on intel) and then 'vncserver'. vncserver is a wrapper on top of x. x, vnc and Gnome2 / KDE combination would put a significant load on CPU. It is ok on Lintel workstations but in a CPU-starved mainframe environment, I would personally (IMHO) not use it. >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 12/08/04 05:37PM >>> Richard: Are you running X in the session you are trying to reach? If you are running vnc client from windows, you need that. I know vnc connects but since the X is not running you see nothing. Try from your browser and point to http://<your ip>:5801 The java client would have been already installed when you installed the vnc viewer. I noted that by default vnc starts up as display 1, hence port 5801. Alas, what you get on the browser without X makes putty's interface look great! __________________________________________ Ranga Nathan / CSG Systems Programmer - Specialist; Technical Services; BAX Global Inc.

I have downloaded a vnc client to my WinXP box. I start the vncserver on Linux and then start the vnc client on my Windows machine, but nothing happens. When I look at the WinXP Taskmgr I can see the vnc client running and when I do a netstat -a from Linux I can see a session has been established with the WinXP vnc client. What am I missing????? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390
