Hi, I just installed tightVNC and got it working. It's awesome.
I tried to show somebody else how awesome it was. I tried to run vncserver from his account (the installation was made in my personal account space, and all files/directories are publically accessible; all files in the bin directory are publicly executable). So from the account of PersonB, I was in the directory /home/PersonB, I issued: /home/PersonA/INSTROOT/bin/vncserver -nolisten local I get the error vncserver: "~/.vnc: No such file or directory" I create the directory ~/.vnc in his home directory, but this message still persists. Is there anything special I have to do to make my installation executable by others? It would be such a waste if only I could use it.... Thanks.
