If the correct one isn't, vnc can't allow connections. Is the password being passed properly (case, spelling, etc)? If not, vnc won't allow the connection. You say you ssh into the machine and start the server. Are you then trying to run vncviewer from there (the machine you logged into) or from the one you're sitting in front of? -- The two most common things in the universe are hydrogen and stupidity. _______________________________________________ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
