It's all the matter of the $DISPLAY variable - if it says the server's IP, then you probably use X tunneling via ssh. Use $DISPLAY to find out where is your X server and then you can use your x11vnc (or x0vncserver or "vnc" X server module). The utility can be run anywhere and can also tell you where is it listening for connections (usually port 590X). Ondrej ugh ugher wrote: > I upgraded to using Gusty with LTSP.
