Hi, I am able to successfully connect from a client PC (Fedora 9) to the remote machine (Fedora 9) using
$ vncviewer 192.168.101.153:5901 provided I am logged in as as user (not root) and start my vncserver as $ vncserver :1 However, I am unable to complete the connection if I start the vncserver while logged in as root: # /sbin/service vncserver start I have modified (as root) /etc/sysconfig/vncservers to include: VNCSERVERS="1:mythtv" VNCSERVERARGS[1]="-geometry 800x600 -nolisten tcp -nohttpd -localhost" where mythtv is the user name. The following output is for the first case ($ vncserver :1): [EMAIL PROTECTED] mythtv]# netstat -tulpan | grep vnc [EMAIL PROTECTED] mythtv]# netstat -tulpan | grep vnc tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:5901 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 3727/Xvnc tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:6001 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 3727/Xvnc tcp 0 0 :::6001 :::* LISTEN 3727/Xvnc The following output is for the second case (# /sbin/service vncserver start): [EMAIL PROTECTED] mythtv]# netstat -tulpan | grep vnc tcp 0 0 127.0.0.1:5901 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 3653/Xvnc Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong. Why does it work in one case, but not the other? My primary goal is to get the vncserver to start automatically at boot time.
