Hi all, I am a newbie with Linux and VNC. I have Redhat Linux 6.2. I have just downloaded the latest version for Windows and X86 Linux. The windows version works perfectly. I can connect from my Linux machine to my windows machine using either the vncviewer or the java within netscape. I can't even start the VNCServer on my linux machine. :-(
I tried viewing the FAQ, Searching the list archives and also looked at the archives for the past 3 months. I can't find anything even remotely similar. I downloaded the zip archive for Linux 2.x for x86. I then copied this over to my linux machine, and linux unzipped it for me. The files are located in a folder called /vnc/vnc_x86_linux_2.0 I have checked that perl exists in /usr/bin When I try running it from the command prompt, I get vncserver: command not found I have tried running it from within X filemanager. Nothing happens. I have viewed the source, all appears OK. I have even tried to do run with perl. Still nothing happens. Once I have the vncserver running, I would also like to be able to have it auto run. I don't know how to cinfigure this. Would there also be a way to configure my remote connection to use the current screen I have already set up for my logon? (I assume the viewer will prompt me for my linux logon, in which case, this question may not apply). Your help is much appreciated. Regards.
