Hi All,
Long time listener, first time caller. :)
I work for a company that uses Linux on the desktop.
We have one windows system which is located in the
server room and all employees have access to this
system for when they need to do something which cannot
be done under Linux.

Nick,
I think as it stands today (and unless a patch is forthcoming pretty
quickly), VNC fails your business requirements for the time being.
Use ConnectPriority=2 on the *server*. However, there's an outstanding
bug that allows VNC clients to come in as "shared", and view this
connection but no
Hello,
I saw that there is a problem at the hooks DLL with receiving hooks event
from all the applications on the desktop.
The hooks I get are only from the vinvnc exe .
Does any one knows what the problem can be?
And how to get the hooks from all the applications .
Thanks,
Naama
OK, let's drop the word "traditional" then.

Make sure you don't have any other "modifier" keys turned on - the most
likely culprit is Num Lock. (xterm - at least in SunOS 5.1 - doesn't pull up

I might try the tight VNC just to see what happens.
The funny thing is that the viewer with the problem is running on the

If I understand you right, you mean blanking out the server's screen (the
client is the controlling machine; the server is the machine which is
"serving" a desktop, so blanking out the client's desktop would be useless).
Having gotten the nomenclature point out of the way... ;)
It appears not. T
The problem is that VNC, on *nix systems, will always use a display number
for access by applications. If one drops the display number for the VNC
client connections, then we'll have *two* unrelated IDs for the VNC server -
the display number, and the VNC ID, whatever that might be (port perhaps?)

Not directly. Theoretically, if you were using a secure tunnel program, you
could map the appropriate printer ports and manually add a new printer from
the server (remote) side to your local side. Not pretty.

That 1-port-per display issue is one of the things that struck me as

Hiyas,
Yep some freeware FTP server is going to be your quickest method of file
transfer. But if your files are smaller such as under 10MB you should be
fine using Windows networking it just will not be as fast as FTP. You can
find several options by going to download.com and searching for "FT

Having recently installed VNC 3.3.3r2 with the tight VNC patch
vnc-3.3.3r2-unix-tight-1.2.2.patch, we are running into a fairly frequent
problem where Xvnc consumes a lot of CPU time. This appears to be due to a
tight polling loop involving:
=>[1] _poll(0x0, 0x8, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x80), at 0xff
My previous stack trace may have been an aberration. This one seems more
typical:
=>[1] _poll(0xffbee998, 0x9, 0xb741, 0xb3b0, 0x0, 0x1), at 0xff217e70
[2] _select(0x80, 0x0, 0xff239164, 0xff239164, 0x18e720, 0xffbee998), at 0xff1cb588

Whoa... If you could do that there would be no need for any ports Only
one thing can listen to a single port. This is not a *NIX issue -- it is a
basic TCP/IP Networking 101 issue that affects all OS's.

The VNC server is not in Java. There is a Java Client. Is this what you are looking
