> status of any firewalls on 10.3.1.194 Its just a Fedora/Gnome workstation. I haven't setup any firewalls. How would I check this? I've seen this in the logs, maybe there's an x session authorization issue?

The hardware is different, and they may be running an older Fedora, so I guess the systems are too different to compare. I've seen had an example of a connection command with ports for forwarding but can't find it. What command would work for my situation? -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of William Hooper Sent: Friday, August 11, 2006 11:10 AM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: main: unable to connect to host: Connection timed out (110) Please send replies to the VNC list.

I can get a textual or graphic desktop) This tells you nothing of the status of any firewalls on 10.3.1.194, though. > I connect to the SSH gateway, and invoke viewer on an associates IP: > > > $ ssh -X [EMAIL PROTECTED] > $ vncviewer 10.3.1.78:1 (invokes the VNCauth box OK) > > > I try to connect with vncviewer to my IP: > > > $ vncviewer 10.3.1.194:1 (connection times out) I assume this is after you have used SSH to connect to the gateway machine? > > If I knew what log to view, I might find why its not working.

Is there a firewall on your machine blocking connections, though. Another troubleshooting step would be to use telnet to verify you can connect to the machine: $ telnet 10.3.1.194 5901 And see if you get a response. -- William Hooper _______________________________________________ VNC-List mailing list [email protected] To remove yourself from the list visit: http://www.realvnc.com/mailman/listinfo/vnc-list _______________________________________________ VNC-List mailing list [email protected] To remove yourself from the list visit: http://www.realvnc.com/mailman/listinfo/vnc-list
