for instructions on how to start VNC via xinetd. It's very simple, and works no problems for me (Redhat 7.2 & 9 from Linux, Windows & Solaris)
Alasdair
I can almost guarantee that it can't use xinetd and never has, someone please correct me if I am inaccurate?
as to the redhat install, how are you starting the vnc server? personally, I telnet to the linux host (RH 9 and RH ent 3) and run
vncserver -geometry 1024x768
watch what display number I get, and connect my viewer. I have a full desktop like I do on the console.
-----Original Message----- When I installed Debian, using old VNC, it started okay and a Graphics desktop opened very fast (Gnome I recollect).
I had to dump the Debian for various reasons.
I have just installed RedHat RHEL 3 and all I get is the Xterm window.
The xstartup script is
#!/bin/sh
[ -r $HOME/.Xresources ] && xrdb $HOME/.Xresources
xsetroot -solid grey
vncconfig -iconic &
xterm -geometry 80x24+10+10 -ls -title "$VNCDESKTOP Desktop" &
twm &
Where and How do I setup vnc to start on boot or preferably in xinet.d
in RHEL 3?
