Hi, I have set up VNC to load on machine startup via rc.local which however means that it loads under root and not default user since at that point the machine is still loading up.
Does anyone know how I can start it under a different non-root account on startup of the machine? And better to bind to desktop:0 ? regards, David Vella - GFI Software Ltd. - www.gfi.com Messaging, Content Security & Network security software GFI: FAXmaker - LANguard - MailSecurity - DownloadSecurity -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Keith Vassallo Sent: Wednesday, April 28, 2004 4:04 PM To: Malta Linux User Group - general list Subject: Re: [LINUX.ORG.MT] KVM Switches and GNU/Linux Hi there, That's a good idea and I do use it regularly... But there are some occasions when I can't use VNC... like connecting via VNC to the machine, su to root and trying to launch konqueror - doesn't work. Also, When the machine goes down etc... It's nice to see what's happening. Keith Valentin FRUNZA wrote: > > Hello Keith, > > Have you considered the software option?
