How is my vnc getting started at boot
Hi! I am unable to figure how vncserver is being launched during local package initialization of my FreBSD 8.2 Release boot. Can anyone help or point me in right direction to figure where my vncserver is being launched from? I need to change my vnc root window size.

Re: Can display be shared through VNC using xorg vnc module?
In the last episode (Dec 16), Yuri said: I read here: http://en.gentoo-wiki.com/wiki/X11VNC that in Gentoo xorg can load vnc module and it will make it also a vnc server.

Re: VNC server embedded into Xorg server
Hi, Sorry for jumping in the middle of the thread. There was a port called net/vnc that contained a vnc.so file. That file could be loaded into the Xorg server and then I was able to monitor the X desktop with VNC. Now I'm using gnome, and gnome2-fifth-toe installs tightvnc. It conflicts with net/vnc. So I cannot install net/vnc. What other options I have to run an X server? I would: - deinstall net/vnc - install gnome and let it install tinyvnc - manually deinstall tinyvnc - install net/vnc The only extra wish is that the X server must be able to start automatically, e.g. without logging into gnome. I need this because the X server will be located at a distant location and I have to be able to use it after a system restart. Especially with gnome, the X server starts before you do any authentication, when gnome present the loggin window, X has already started. To do X over vnc remotely, you need quite some amount of bandwidth. Are you sure you need a graphical access? X protocol is designed natively to run over the network, so you may not need vnc. With X you can have an application running on your remote computer, with the display coming to your desktop machine (if your desktop machine is some Windows thing, there are good X emulators for Windows). If you really want to keep your setting, there should exist a gnome startup script that you can hack to run vnc somewhere between the line starting X and the line starting gnome authentication.

Annoying FreeBSD 6.2 behavior - takedown of VNC sessions
Since I've upgraded to 6.2-RELEASE, I've noticed that every few disconnects (especially putting my laptop to sleep while still connected) while connecting remotely to a VNC hosted on FreeBSD, it tanks my gnome-session entirely. I've tried a couple variations (exec, background or not), but this never used to happen with 5.4-STABLE. I use VNC specifically for the purpose of being able to disconnect and not have it crash my windowing sessions. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Xvfb + VNC
Hello, I could install gdm with Xorg and vnc.so module loaded. This is fine, now I can access that X server with vnc. The problem is that the Xorg server needs a video card. So if somebody connects a montior to that server while I'm working from home then he/she will see what I'm doing. (I cannot restrict physical access to that computer, but I do not want others to see my desktop...) My idea is to create a virtual framebuffer server with Xvfb, and load vnc.so module there. Since vnc.so can be password protected, in theory, nobody will have access to that X session, except me. But I cannot do this. Xvfb(1) tells me that it has the same options that Xserver(1) has. The Xserver(1) does not tell me anything about loadable modules, but X is a symlink to Xorg. Well, Xorg has a -config option but Xvfb does not. :-( Does it mean that I cannot load vnc.so into the virtual framebuffer server? Is there a better solution? In my dreams: 1. I would run a virtual X server, that is not visible directly (not requiring any video card) 2. I would access this X server with some program remotely (preferrably VNC) 3.

screen? /usr/port/sysutils/screen My users need up to 20 instances of a graphical analysis package which has a text-based control window that spawns two graphical windows. They run a window manager with 24 virtual desktops, each running an instance of this program.

Does anyone run VNC with 64-bit FreeBSD (amd64)?
G'day everyone, I recently had to replace a disk and took the opportunity to upgrade from 5-stable to 6-stable. I also changed from the 32-bit to the 64-bit version. I have a dual Opteron server. VNC installed from ports (4.2.1) doesn't work on the 64-bit machine. The same version installed on my home machine (32-bit) with the .vnc directory copied over exactly from my work 64-bit machine runs fine. So in what sense does it fail If I create a blank .vnc/xstartup, then I get the usual grey screen. Then if I try and run X commands on that display, some work, like xsetroot -solid blue, but others, xterm, icewm, twm, etc don't. 130~/.vnc$ icewm -display :9 IceWM: using /home/xx/.icewm for private configuration files X Error of failed request: BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation) Major opcode of failed request: 2 (X_ChangeWindowAttributes) Value in failed request: 0x0 Serial number of failed request: 9 Current serial number in output stream: 10 131~/.vnc$ xterm -display :9 X Error of failed request: BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation) Major opcode of failed request: 1 (X_CreateWindow) Value in failed request: 0x21 Serial number of failed request: 41 Current serial number in output stream: 49 If they are in the xstartup file they give the exact same errors in the vnc log file.

VNC forwarding over sshd issue
I'm having a weird problem that surfaces sometimes and I am having trouble pinning down the cause. What I do is use VNC to remote-control my home FreeBSD box remotely. Most of the time, this works fine. My home router forwards the external port to my FreeBSD (6.0R) box. I use PuTTY as a Windows ssh client, and have a saved session that does the VNC port-forwarding (local port 7000 forwards over ssh to remote port 5900). I run Gnome (2.12.2) and vino as my VNC server and connect to my home desktop. Sshd is OpenSSH 2.6.1, PuTTY 0.53b, TightVNC 1.2.9 But every now and then (like right now), the VNC side of things fails. I can still connect via SSH just fine. The PuTTY logs show the port is successfully being forwarded with no error: 2006-02-17 09:38:58 Local port 7000 forwarding to localhost:5900 But when I try to launch a VNC client on the remote PC (in this case, TightVNC) I get a Connection closed error. The PuTTY logs show: 2006-02-17 09:52:42 Opening forwarded connection to localhost:5900 2006-02-17 09:52:42 Forwarded port closed On the FreeBSD box, no log files seem to get changed after the attempt. In particular, I check messages and auth.log but doing a listing sorted by time, I see nothing logged. What I DO know is if I went home and restarted the FreeBSD box, it'd work. I've tried -HUP on both sshd and vino-server to no avail. I cannot find any docs for vino-server to determine additional params I could pass it for more-detailed logging. Enabling additional debugging info on sshd with the -d option seems to not be an option remotely since it prevents it from going into daemon mode and it'll only handle one connection, and I can't make the problem surface on-request in order to test it while at home. The problem is particularly annoying because I can't MAKE it happen. It just sometimes does, with no settings changes, and will work again after rebooting the FreeBSD system, again with no settings changes. SSH never stops working... it's always the VNC-port-forwarding side of things. Any suggestions? Somewhere else to look for info? Some way to get more debug info from sshd or vino-server?

Thanks I'm assuming you try to connect several times and it fails each time. I use TightVNC to connect to KDE's desktop sharing and it gives the same error sometimes (not through SSH though). If I keep trying it will eventually get through. Some basic troubleshooting ideas: Eliminate SSH port forwarding as a suspect by connecting directly to the VNC port from your LAN the next time the error comes up. Eliminate TightVNC as a suspect by trying another VNC client, such as RealVNC. Eliminate Vino as a suspect trying another VNC server. A -HUP wont necessarily do anything to a daemon that is responding oddly. You can try restarting sshd completely by doing /etc/rc.d/sshd restart. This can be done remotely, just don't close your existing connection until you know the daemon came back up. Close your connection and reconnect. You can probably do the same to vino by killing it and then bringing it back up (not familiar with vino). Once you know where the problem originates maybe you can figure out how to fix it, or at least how to work around it.

This probably reflects a bug in the program. The error was 'BadAccess (attempt to access private resource denied)'. (Details: serial 294 error_code 10 request_code 129 minor_code 5) (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously; that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it. To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line option to change this behavior.

In the case of his FreebSD machine I just got the simple session that xstart produces. How can I star vncserver on his FreebSD machine, such that I get a full blown KDE desktop? This is BTW what he gets when he logs in via kdm. Is there a way to share an already running X session with vnc? Or do I have to start a new session using vncserver? KDE provides a VNC server that allows you to connect to an already running KDE session. From the KDE control center select Internet Network -- Desktop Sharing. Adjust the settings to your liking.

VNC + SSH question..
Hey guys had a SSH forward question so here goes... I have 2 computers on my lan one of them is a server and the other is my desktop. Desktop 192.168.1.104 Server 192.168.1.103 Now I have port forwarding setup on my crappy linksys router so 22 is pointing to my Server (192.168.1.103) My question is this... I would like to tightVNC to my Desktop (192.168.1.104) forwarding it through SSH. Now from what I understand If my router was pointing to my desktop this would not be a problem at all. All I would have to do is SSH to my IP while forwarding 22 to 5900. However I cant do it this way since 22 is pointing to my server. So I figured I would ssh into my server and issue a command such as ssh 192.168.1.103 -L22:192.168.1.104:5900 however once im in and I run vncview it obivoiusly can be displayed becuase Im not running X on the server. Am I way off here? Is there a way to do this? Will I need to forward 22 on my router to the desktop as well as server? Is there a way to connect to my server thats not running X and some how vnc into my desktop? On the remote machines I'd be useing PuTTY for windows and SSH on Linux box's. Prehaps someone can give me a step by step guide?

That may be your problem and not your port forwarding setup, because it appears-at least to me-that it is correct. So, try a different display or if you want access via display :0 try x11vnc. Note that it may be considered more of a security issue since it would connect directly to your desktop's display. -Garrett ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I'll start looking into the terminal service (it didn't get installed with W2K, but I haven't checked out XP Pro yet) and use VNC in the meantime. I'll be using it to write Word docs mostly, and if it's efficient enough, I might just see how well Escape Velocity works (I know, probably not at all). Network security isn't an issue because it's all my personal network behind a firewall. Thanks again. Lou I'm entering this thread late; so please forgive me if I'm duplicating someone else's input. One of TightVNC's enhancements over VNC is the ability to access the server from a web browser. TightVNC listens on port 5800 + the display number. Therefore, if you would normally use a vncviewer to access the TightVNC server 192.168.0.1:1, you could also access the desktop using any gui internet browser at: http://192.168.0.1:5801/ (I have NOT tested this from browser on a pda or cell phone.) TightVNC is available for many operating systems including FreeBSD (it's in the ports), Windows and Linux. I don't think it's available for Mac OSX.

Re: anyone gotten vnc 4.0 to compile yet?
I got it to compile by placing #include sys/types.h in vncsrc/xc/programs/Xserver/vnc/XserverDesktop.h on line 34 (just after the #include os.h) I built this against the X430src- tree on FreeBSD 4.7. I then copied the vnc.so module to a FreeBSD 4.10-STABLE box running Xorg 6.7. The 4.10 box is running with i810 drivers. I also tried the module on a 5-latest laptop with DRM enabled and ATI Radeon drivers. When I connected, the laptop screen started flickering and the laptop locked up hard. Power cycle to recover. I haven't tried it with the DRM disabled. I modified the XF86Config file as per the instructions on RealVNC's page: http://www.realvnc.com/v4/x0.html If your native X server is an XFree86 version 4 server, then the vnc.so module should be copied to the /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/extensions directory. It can be enabled like any other module by adding a Load vnc line to the Module section of XF86Config. The parameters listed in the Xvnc manual page can be set as options in XF86Config. You will need to set either the passwordFile parameter or set the securityTypes parameter to None if you really don't want any authentication. Note that options cannot be set in the Module section of XF86Config - try the Screen section. For example: Section Module ... Load vnc EndSection ... Section Screen ...

I have setup a terminal VNC server, and half-documented the way I did it at http://oxo.rucus.net/docs/Terminal-Vnc-HOWTO I am the sysadmin of a multi-user box and I am doing this for the plebs who are members of the computer society (RUCUS http://rucus.ru.ac.za/). What I want is an easy way of making vnc connections secure. The machine is firewalled from outside the LAN, but obviously not from inside it. I still don't like unencrypted data flowing over the network. For my own use, I use ssh tunnels to do the encryption, but that is far beyond your Random Joe Fuc^WUser. How can I make the connections over vnc secure? I would prefer not to delve into the source code, but will if I have to.

[4.9-R] Ip forwarding for internal VNC.
Hi everybody, I have the following setup: FreeBSD Server (4.9-R) 2 NIC's [xl0,Public Range IP, 196.xx.xx.xx] [xl1,Private Range IP, 192.168.0.1] Windows 2k server [Private IP, 192.168.0.2] The Windows 2000 server is running VNC and is serving as an application server for windows software that is not-so-stable on FreeBSD. :P (The windows machine is not connected directly to the Internet for obvious reasons ;) ) What I want: I want to be able to connect to the VNC service running on the Windows machine, via the Internet. Is it possible to set up port forwarding so that if I connect to the FreeBSD machine on port 5800, the request be forwarded to the Windows machine on port 5800? Do I need to set up the FreeBSD machine in any specific way to accomplish this setup? Thank you in advance. Please copy me in any replies, as I am only subscribed to the digest. Thank you.

Use ssh port forwarding; that way the tunnel only exists when you want it to, and you will be the only person who can use it. Check the ssh manpage for details; see the -L option.

Way OT: SSH+VNC as quickndirty VPN
Here's the scenario: I have a Windows machine at work. I have a VNC server on it. It is behind a firewall over which I have no control, so I cannot make a direct connection to this machine from outside. What I'd like to do is to initiate a SSH connection (with compression) to my BSD machine at home (which I can do) and forward the VNC server connection through that SSH tunnel. I'd like to then lock my workstation and office, go home, and use vncviewer to have access to my workstation at work. That way I can do work at odd hours and while watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Is this possible? I have tried a few combinations of port forwarding, but for whatever reason, find it unintuitive. Can't quite get it to work. Any suggestions much appreciated. -John ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I agree, it is counter-intuitive, but I know it mostly works on a Unix-to- Unix connection, but I have forgotten how to set it up. There may be a problem with doing it with windows as the server, though. vnc can only grant access to a single session in windows, and that session's display is based on reading the video frame buffer. This generally would mean that you can't simultaneously lock your machine and do work on it at the same time from home. In other words, when you login from home, everything you do will be displayed on the windows machine in your office while you are doing it. -- Allan Bowhill [EMAIL PROTECTED] pgp0.pgp Description: PGP signature
