In your messages you seem to not be sure if it was working earlier or not. There is quite a bit of documentation on the VNC site. The source version comes with a README telling you how to compile and install VNC. I see you also asked about the /etc/sysconfig/vncservers file. This is part of Redhat's install, not the one from Realvnc.com. Consequently it is documented on RedHat's website ( http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/linux/RHL-8.0-Manual/ref-guide/s1-boot-in it-shutdown-sysconfig.html ) Your RPM question would have been answered at Redhat's site, too. > The Linux community continuously sites the strengths of Linux .vs Microsoft. > However, I can assure you that I've never had the sense of frustration that > I've had in the last couple of days in dealing with VNC/Linux. VNC is not Linux. You are having problems with an application, not the operating system. This is comparable to complaining about Windows because you are having trouble with WordPerfect or Lotus 1-2-3. > I must also tell you I've been dealing with apps/writing serious > code/managing projects/etc for some 15-20 years.

Some of the messages provide new info, but a number of them are also repeats of previous info. It seems you are actually having problems with the Windows viewer, not the Linux server. Have you tried the Linux vncviewer to see if it works as expected? You say the Java viewer works as expected. Have you tried another version of the Windows viewer? -- William Hooper Why should I grow up ?
