Dear list,

I've downloaded turbovnc_1.0.2_i386.deb for a 32 bit Ubuntu 11.10 system.

When installing the .deb, with the Ubuntu packet manager, I get the
notification "bad quality" before installing:

"Lintian check results for /home/ande/Downloads/turbovnc_1.0.2_i386.deb:
Use of uninitialized value $ENV{"HOME"} in concatenation (.) or string
at /usr/bin/lintian line 112.
E: turbovnc: maintainer-address-missing The VirtualGL Project
[http://www.VirtualGL.org]";

Is it a good idea to proceed?

When I install it with gdebi, it seems to work fine.. so this might be a
minor glitch. As I need only the viewer here, I do nothing else.

------

I managed to install turbovnc-1.0.2.x86_64 on another 64 bit AMD system
(Scientific Linux 6.1 = RHEL 6.1) being root. I'd like to have a
multi-user system.

So, in order to start slowly, I add this to /etc/sysconfig/tvncservers:

VNCSERVERS="1:user"
VNCSERVERARGS[1]="-geometry 1900x1200 -nohttpd -localhost"

I start the service as root with

# service start tvncserver

and get a positive result. nmap on localhost and on my own ip, made from
the box itself shows the right open ports:

5901/tcp open  vnc-1
6001/tcp open  X11:1

If I issue nmap from another machine / IP, everything appears to be
closed. There are no iptables rules or default policy that might block
that traffic.

I've already turned off selinux with setenforce 0.

I can connect to the box from outside with ssh, but see no open port
(not even port 22) when nmap'ing from outside.

I know this must be a Scientific Linux or RHEL related problem, but you
might all have the same issue when using RHEL out of the box like I did.

Maybe the .rpm can be improved, too :-/

Cheers
Andreas
