Sending Custom error message to viewer

2006-09-22 Thread Kumar, Siva
In our current setup of VNC, we use inetd to start a new VNC session (inetd calls a script that starts Xvnc) whenever a connection request is received from a vncviewer. We try to enforce a maximum limit on the number of VNC session running concurrently. This check is made in the script starting Xvn

Does anyone have physical access to the XP box? In Windows the display shown by VNC is the same display shown on the monitor. So if a monitor is connected to the box, all your actions can be seen and the kbd/mouse attached to the box can be used for input. -siva -Original Message- From: [

Jose, You need to be running the vncviewer to view the desktop generated by the vncserver. (http://www.realvnc.com/products/free/4.1/winvncviewer.html) If you are doing so, what does the vncviewer say when it fails? -siva -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTE

John, >> vncviewer -geometry 1440x1062 -passwd z ::4918:19 ::4918:abcd" or even "::4918abcd"; it works. It makes sense because you cannot have more than 1 display listening on a single port (the second Xvnc will complain that it cannot bind to the given port) unless using inetd. -siva. -

RE: VNC session quits

2006-10-30 Thread Kumar, Siva
The vnc server times out idle connections (no keyboard/mouse input) after a pre-set timeout interval. This interval is, by default, an hour. It can be modified by the Xvnc parameter -IdleTimeout . In your case you would have to add it to the xinetd entry starting Xvnc. Refer to Xvnc man pages for

RE: Limit number of users

2007-02-21 Thread Kumar, Siva
Are you starting a new VNC session for each user using xinetd or are the users sharing a single VNC session? If it is the former you can configure inetd to run your shell script instead of directly starting a VNC session (running Xvnc). In the shell script you can check if the allowed limit of Xvn

Color Level on slow connections

2007-02-21 Thread Kumar, Siva
Will the Color level be adjusted according to the connection speed even if the User picks a specific color level (in the Colours & Encoding tab of the Options dialog) before connecting. I thought this depended on whether the AutoSelect option was selected or not. But today I tried reducing the b
