I'm running vncserver on a linux server (RH 7.3 fwiw) behind a linksys router. I can successfully tunnel to the server with putty from a remote location, and get a graphical logon screen. The vnc client's titlebar reads "nobody's x11 desktop(linuxserv:1)." I then log in using a linux account.
So far, so good. However, when I click on the menu entries, nothing happens. Since the menu entries are just pointers to scripts, I've tried running one from a terminal session (inside the vnc session). The first three lines read: Copying /etc/resolv.conf to default profile. Xlib: connection to "linuxser:1.0" refused by server Xlib: Client is not authorized to connect to the Server Several lines of traceback code follow, and the last line is: RuntimeError: cannot open display. Can someone explain to me what is wrong, and how to fix it? Is there some way of setting up the vnc session so that the title bar reflects the user who is actually logging in to the server, and would fix the problem? TIA. -Basil Copeland _______________________________________________ VNC-List mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] To remove yourself from the list visit: http://www.realvnc.com/mailman/listinfo/vnc-list
