(is there an uninstall rpm function within linux??) what are the correct steps for building/installing a vnc server for a redhat (8.0) linux platform??? i've seen plenty of msgs that point to a "/etc/sysconfig/vncservers" file. I don't have this file on any of the boxes where i've selected vnc from the linux/redhat distro when i was installing linux. in fact, i can't seem to find vnc on any of the boxes where i've tried to install vnc as part of the linux install process. (i've only had it initially work when i did the vnc install by hand...) so, in essence, i'm trying to find some form of docs/pointers to a sequence of steps for installing the VNC server on a linux box in a repeatable fashion.... the docs that i found on the realvnc site weren't that helpful. by the way, where does the vncservers file come from, and what should be in it. is there any doc/set of docs that describes the various setup files required and what they should include.

A simple question (I hope!!). I can run the vnc browser (java) and I see the unix box (GNOME) as I should).... In keeping everything simple, I'm trying to fire up a Windows VNC Client to talk to a Linux VNC Server. However, When I run the VNC Client (Windows) a black window is displayed. This used to work before (I think)!!! I've done a lot of rewiring/etc.. I can't really say that everything has actually worked on this box!! I run vncserver on the unix box. It appears that I have multiple VNC displays running. I'm new to unix, so I don't know how to go about actually checking to see which displays are actually running. Any help/assistance would be greatly appreciated. Or any pointers to online docs/etc.... Thanks Bruce Douglas [EMAIL PROTECTED] PS. As I stated, I could have sworn that I had everything working at one time!!! _______________________________________________ VNC-List mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.realvnc.com/mailman/listinfo/vnc-list _______________________________________________ VNC-List mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.realvnc.com/mailman/listinfo/vnc-list _______________________________________________ VNC-List mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.realvnc.com/mailman/listinfo/vnc-list _______________________________________________ VNC-List mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.realvnc.com/mailman/listinfo/vnc-list
