Connection Refused when the server is not logged in?

Thu, 07 Apr 2005 15:00:40 -0700

I have vnc setup and working correctly, but only when the 'server' is logged in. If I reboot the server and the login screen comes up, I cannot connect to vnc. If the server is logged in and I can see the desktop locally, I can connect without any problems.

The problem only seems to show up when the server I am trying to connect to is not logged in. Is this a bug/feature, or am I doing something wrong?

I check to make sure the vncserver is running while the server is logged out. I even logged in via ssh and restarted it. I also made sure that the port was unblocked. Everything seems to work fine as soon as I log in locally, but not if its logged out.

Server: CentOS 4.0
Viewer: Windows XP SP2

Any ideas as to what may be wrong here?
