Hi,

 

Is there any possibility to run "init level 3" on the server and get X 
on the client ?

Dear Hari,

First, when you post to this list we will very much appreciate it if you 
will leave the  13 lines of signature, especially the huge HTML 
signature that you use which is so big it nearly poked me in th eye...

Now for your qeustion - yes, there is no need for X to be running on the 
 server (which in X terminology is actually called display client). It 
only needs to run on the clients (which in X terminology are called 
display servers).

Simply put - X only needs to be running where the screen is.


OK, only NOW have I noticed the subject line that mentions Xvnc :-)

You will need to run Xvnc on the server of course, which technically is 
an X server - but not one that talks to the server graphics hardware.

So yes, you can do that without running X (as in - a GUI interface) on 
the server.

run level 3 being the "no X" level is a RedHatism, btw and may be 
different for other distros.
