I do not understand. As the KDE machine is headless, I take it that you are having problems with the MS-Windows box? If you want specific rather than generic help you will have to be a bit more specific about your set-up and what you have done/installed where. Are you using a "standard" Linux distribution? If so which one? What version of KDE are you using? What version of XFree86 / VNC is installed? Are you in run level 5? Is there a special reason for running the (many years obsolete/insecure) telnet daemon rather than openssh? What version of MS-Windows are you using? Have you installed an X server and/or VNC on the MS box? If so which versions? Is the MS-Windows installation "clean" or do you have anti-virus, port blocking, etc. software running? If the reason for telnet is because you do not have a MS-Windows ssh client, you should get putty.exe and set the keyboard for the Linux session to XtermR6. Is your intention to be able to open a window on th MS box and perform a graphical login to a KDE session on the Linux box? -- ray _______________________________________________ Scottish mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mailman.lug.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/scottish
