Re: xserver etc... I have means to connect via other apps such as putty (which is not bad if you run emacs) and Xserve. However, I was really happy with VNC as my state is maintained on the remote server. If I'm doing something and my vpn session crashes, everything is still there when I reconnect. So, my preference is to use VNC - just hopefully without the "spewage". -----Original Message----- From: Alex Pelts [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, August 15, 2006 7:11 PM To: Brian Auld Cc: [email protected] Subject: Re: keystroke spewage Brian, It would be interesting to try if you can connect from inside of the network using the same client. This will eliminate possible vpn problems. This is the problem I have never heard of. Also is it possible to use X server to connect to that RH box? U can use free x server of the Internet. Maybe your keymap is misconfigured somehow? Alex Brian Auld wrote: > I am new to using VNC and am having a frustrating problem with > keystroke spewage.
