Several things to check out in this situation: * Have you typed in the correct host name? If you're not sure of the name or if you're not sure if you've got working DNS, type in the IP address. * Make sure you're using the correct port/display number. * Make sure you don't have firewall in the VNC server. Have you got something called shurewall in your Fedora? If your Fedora is supposed to respond to ping, do a ping to make sure you've got the correct IP address. ---------- Free version Zoner Photo Studio 9 - http://www.zps9.com/ _______________________________________________ VNC-List mailing list VNC-List@realvnc.com To remove yourself from the list visit: http://www.realvnc.com/mailman/listinfo/vnc-list
