Hello Guys! This is my first post! :) I am working on building a home ZFS NAS and I have selected OpenSolaris b134 because I would very much like to make use of dedup. (I have a lot of VMWare images! :P) Because this is a server it's going to be sitting in my basement in a corner just hanging out and doing its server thing and to that end I would like to run headless, thus my wish to get VNC server running. :) So I have been poking around with Google looking for how to set up VNC server on OpenSolaris and I have found a few links, but none of them seem to work. Most of them seem to call for SUNWxvnc which is not installed, by default anyway, though xvnc is. I have tried to follow some of these guides anyway but without success.
xnvc is the renamed version of the SUNWxvnc package. You should be able to install xvnc, and then just run vcnserver. It will prompt you for a password to use, and you should then be on your way. You can use vncclient, or the vinagre client that is also available.

Here are some of the links I've tried: http://blogs.sun.com/timthomas/entry/a_simple_vnc_server_and http://blogs.sun.com/robsblog/entry/vnc_settings http://www.castro.aus.net/~maurice/opensolaris/vnc.html http://opensolaris.org/jive/thread.jspa?threadID=100314 I'm not really looking for anything fancy. I would just like to be able to login with a username and password. Now if it happen to work a little more like terminal service than a console, so much the better, but just having access would be nice. So if anyone could lend a hand and provide some good step by step advice I would greatly appreciate it.
