But not the same sesson from another machine. It sounds like you just need to set up an init.d script to start a batch of vncservers for you. Look at http://faq.gotomyvnc.com/fom-serve/cache/65.html for some examples. The reason is inetd is designed to start a program for a connection, then end that program on disconnection. Depending on the access your users have, you might just create a script for them that starts and stops the VNC server on a specific display. That way they can run that script to start their own server when needed and then close it when not. -- William Hooper _______________________________________________ VNC-List mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] To remove yourself from the list visit: http://www.realvnc.com/mailman/listinfo/vnc-list
