You can try `vncserver start` and see what happens. > > what am i missing?? Nothing, I expect you have to much: `which vncserver`: does this give the vncserver script as provided? or a scrip in the /etc/.../rc.../ tree? It looks like an init script response to me. Best to remove this /etc/.../rc.../ directories out your $PATH. Even for root! On the other hand, vncserver is just a (perl) script to start Xvnc. There are more ways to do that: http://www.sourcecodecorner.com/articles/vnc/linux.asp CBee _______________________________________________ VNC-List mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.realvnc.com/mailman/listinfo/vnc-list
