Just an FYI that this has been resolved.... Please see my other message from
a few minutes ago with the "resolved" in the title for details.

FYI, I'm currently using my existing PuTTY tunnel to which I *added* a
tunnel for 5902 in addition to the 5901, so that's probaby listening right
now. Here's the output of the netstat command:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# netstat -p | grep 5901
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# netstat -anp | grep 5901
tcp        0      0 127.0.0.1:5901              0.0.0.0:*
LISTEN      6499/0      

Netstat -p didn't show anything, so I re-ran it with -anp and searched for
5901 in the results. I'm going to CC the list, so that this will get into
the archives if we ever get it resolved. :-)

Hi John,

It seems that something is already using ports 6001 and 5901.

Can you try running "netstat -p" as root, and look for lines for those two
ports - they should tell you which process is using the ports.

Regards,

Wez @ RealVNC Ltd.
