When starting the vncserver put the command in brackets so that it is not running in the context of the xterminal. (vncserver :2 &)
This will allow the xterm to exit without affecting the vncserver, since the vncserver will no longer be a child of the xterm process. ====== From: "James Weatherall" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: RE: vncserver not staying connected (Certified Virus Free) Date: Mon, 13 Dec 2004 19:00:58 -0000 Organization: RealVNC Ltd. Tracey, How are you closing the xterm from which you created the VNC Server? Are you typing "exit", or closing it by clicking on the xterm window's close button?
