Any idea's ? If you run `Xvnc :4 -query localhost`, and connect with `vncviewer 4`. Do you get a login environment in the vncviewer area? If you get the login, you should check the /etc/inetd or /etc/xinetd parts. If you do not get a login session it is in the dhcp or display manager area (the other files). I don't know details on debian, but for HP-UX, not all users can use the network. In the /etc/inetd or /etc/xinetd area, the user nobody shoud not be used, better use a user that has networking privileges. You can try: - root - system users like sys with id's between 1 and 100 - normal users with ids between 1000 and 60000 - special users with ids over 60000 (near 2^32) CBee CBee _______________________________________________ VNC-List mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.realvnc.com/mailman/listinfo/vnc-list
