I didn't get any responses last time, so I'm sending this again. If I'm being dense,
and just missing something that is already posted in the archives, please point
me in that direction...
Thanks Very much in Advance!
I am using vnc 4.0 server with Sun Solaris 9, and vncviewer on a Win2K
box. I have sort of gotten vnc working via inetd, and a one line shell
script. When I specify the following options in my shell script, I get
the dtlogin screen:
#!/bin/sh
HOST=`/sbin/uname -n`
/usr/local/bin/Xvnc -inetd -query localhost -once -log *:stderr:100
-localhost -securitytypes=none -geometry 1024x768 -depth 24 -desktop
"VNCserver on $HOST"
But, it says "Welcome to remote host igor". "Remote Login" is not one of
the choices in the "Options" pull down menu.
When I specify:
#!/bin/sh
HOST=`/sbin/uname -n`
/usr/local/bin/Xvnc -inetd -indirect localhost -once -log *:stderr:100
-localhost -securitytypes=none -geometry 1024x768 -depth 24 -desktop
"VNCserver on $HOST"
It runs dtchooser, and I get the list of servers to log into, but if I
select any of them, the screen disappears. If I remove the -once switch
the screen stays around, but becomes gray.
My question has two parts.
1. How can I emulate logging in directly to the console, so that dtlogin
says "Welcome to Foo" instead of "Welcome to remote host Foo", and has
the Options pull-down menu, with the ability to "Select Host from List"
to run the dtchooser app.
2. How do I get this to work at all? - When I specify the second option
listed above (-indirect) in my one liner shell script, as soon as I
select another host, the screen disappears. - If I remove the -once
switch, the screen doesn't disappear, but just becomes grey. After a
couple minutes it re-prompts the menu choices.
I didn't have any success with the following suggestion:
http://www.realvnc.com/pipermail/vnc-list/2001-March/020674.html
My /usr/openwin/lib/X11/xdm/xdm-config file does not have a:
DisplayManager.requestPort: 0
line.
Any insight would be greatly appreciated.
