Hello again! I am running SuSE 11 SP3, and am using an image that was set up for me. It seems when I use a clone from one of the gurus VNC *always* allows users to log in under their own id/pw. If they are non-root, they, of course, have no root permissions. When I use install media myself I have to 1. go in and configure xstartup to use gnome by default (which now is no problem) and, 2) I can only use VNC as root. I still cannot figure the trick in number 2 out. I looked for the xstartup in the clones I get from more experienced folks in .vnc and *I don't see it*. When I do my own install of VNC xstartup is .vnc. Also, with the clones I don't have to use a VNC password, just the userid and pw of that specific user.
Bottom line: I need to let my students log into VNC under their own account. We will talk about why we are using VNC and not CLI solely later. We're working on that one.
