Hi folks,
I have been trying to solve an error, but with no luck. I have tried reading
the faq, various web sites, and searching the list archives, but nothing
quite solves the problem, which is this:
I would like to utilize the -inetd option so that any web browser can hit the
server and get a VNC connection via the Java applet.
I am using linux-Mandrake 8.0 and vnc 3.3.3r1
My /etc/services file has entries as per Andre Moreira's page (
http://www.dei.isep.ipp.pt/~andre/extern/ixvnc.htm ) :
vnc-640x480x8 5950/tcp
vnc-800x600x8 5951/tcp
vnc-800x600x16 5952/tcp
But, I am using Xinetd, so his instructions for inetd were modified
accordingly. e.g., under /etc/xinetd.d/ I created a file named vnc-800x600x8
that contained:
service vnc-800x600x8
{
flags = REUSE
socket_type = stream
wait = no
user = root
server = /usr/X11R6/bin/Xvnc
server_args = -inetd -broadcast -once -geometry 800x600 -depth 8
log_on_failure += USERID
}
Then I restarted Xinetd and tried to connect to the server from a different
machine. I launched mozilla and tried to go to http://192.168.1.4:5951
I received the following:
<snip>
Unrecognized option: -inetd use: X [:] [option] -a # mouse acceleration
(pixels) -ac disable access control restrictions -audit int set audit trail
level -auth file select authorization file bc enable bug compatibility -bs
disable any backing store support -c turns off key-click c # key-click volume
(0-100) -cc int default color visual class -co file color database file -core
generate core dump on fatal error -dpi int screen resolution in dots per inch
-deferglyphs [none|all|16] defer loading of [no|all|16-bit] glyphs -f # bell
base (0-100) -fc string cursor font -fn string default font name -fp string
default font path -help prints message with these options -I ignore all
remaining arguments -ld int limit data space to N Kb
</snip>
I can't figure out what the problem is. Does anyone have suggestions?
Thanks,
Derek Di Matteo
