OSX has a vnc server built in. Go into your sharing prefs and turn
Apple Remote Desktop on. It'll pop up a dialog asking for which
permissions to give local users. Populate the VNC password field and
then a vnc client will be able to connect. And yes you must be
running a server to connect, the client is just the viewer.

Hi, all.
I'm trying to set up a Debian box running RealVNC (as server) to a
Mac OS X (1
0.4.6) box running Chicken of the VNC.
Everytime I run:
foobar #vncviewer
from the Linux box and enter an IP address, vncviewer aborts. The
IP address i
s assigned from a ADSL Router/Modem (i.e. Linux has 10.0.0.7, Mac
10.0.0.6 and
the router 10.0.0.138).
If I try to connect Mac -> Linux I get a connection refused on
port 5900. I'm
using the password set up in vncpasswd.
A search of the mailing list archives turned up nothing, so any
help appreciat
ed.
I'm a little confused. So the Mac is runnig CotVNC (which is a VIEWER
only), and the Linux box is running vncviewer as well. Where's the
server? You have to be running a server like OSXvnc on the Mac, and
you have to run vncserver on the linux box. . .
