Hi; I've tried VNC and got it working but found it unreliable. It is the only option for remote management but if your studio is local I would highly recommend a hardware switch. I used an inexpensive KVM switch to jump between multiple boxes some running different OS's and never had a failure.

You can use a VNC "like" shared desktop or connect to an extra session, with a bigger screen resolution than on the host. Thats much faster, too.! I use the shared mode to see, if everything is running fine or add some carts to rdairplay, and the other mode to make some maintenance... You need a ssh connection to use this. http://www.nomachine.com/download.php -- -- Ruediger Radio Ostfriesland Techniksupport Automation _______________________________________________ Rivendell-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.rivendellaudio.org/mailman/listinfo/rivendell-dev _______________________________________________ Rivendell-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.rivendellaudio.org/mailman/listinfo/rivendell-dev
