Joe, You need to edit your ~/.vnc/xstartup file to run "gnome-session" or "startkde" rather than twm. You should also add "unset SESSION_MANAGER" to the start of xstartup. Regards, Wez @ RealVNC Ltd. > -Original Message- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behal

Dragos, VNC doesn't have any "subtle requirements" of routers. It simply requires that they work as per the relevant specifications (IEEE802.11, Ethernet, IP, etc). The error that you described in your previous mail, doesn't sound at all like the sort of thing you'll get from a broken router, bu

Programmatically set access control to allow connection from other machines

2005-11-08 Thread Su, Michelle \(GE Healthcare\)
I am aware of a way to allow connections to VNC server from other machines by the following steps: right click VNC icon and select option, go to Connections tab and uncheck "Only accept connections from the local machine". However is there another way to do it, such as to programmatically mimic th
