Port 177 is the XDMCP listener, not the port that Xvnc uses. Client connects to ---> VNC port (59xx) which connects to ---> port 177 of Xserver

I an using The TightVNC client and RPMs. The grey screens were with something like this: 192.168.1.21:5950 If I leave the port off or connect to 177, it fails. Hmmm I can't even connect to port 177. Is that a problem? Should port 177 be enabled? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ To download your own free RevilloC mailserver, visit http://www.revilloc.com/mailserver ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the line: 'unsubscribe vnc-list' in the message BODY See also: http://www.uk.research.att.com/vnc/intouch.html --------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the line: 'unsubscribe vnc-list' in the message BODY See also: http://www.uk.research.att.com/vnc/intouch.html ---------------------------------------------------------------------
