Either start Xvnc with -ac option(edit your vncserver file) or after starting Xvnc run the command xhost +. Both of them opens potential security problem.

I f someone knows something anout it, I did not find anything neither in the mailing list archive, nor in the FAQ. Here is the detailed issue: Environment: Solaris Using a pool of machines, I need to be able to start some jobs on different machines, each of them running under X display (the job is embedded into a short script which opens a vnc session on the machine). Here is a part of the launch script: set nvclog = `$XVNCHOME/vncserver -depth 24 -nolisten local |& /bin/grep 'Log file is' | /bin/awk '{print $4}'` # runs the server set nvcdisplay = `basename ${nvclog:r}` # and gets the display host and port During its execution,the job sometimes run into trouble and cannot access the X display. Here is the message I sometimes (unreproducible) get from my application (): > Xlib: connection to "cdssoph38:1.0" refused by server > Xlib: Client is not authorized to connect to Server > xwd: unable to open display 'cdssoph38:1' > usage: xwd [-display host:dpy] [-debug] [-help] [-root|-id |-name ] [-nobdrs] [-out ] [-xy] [-add value] [-frame] > xwdtopnm: couldn't read XWD file header 4d8 Do you know any possible reason for this problem? Thanks, Olivier. -- ______________________________________________ ____________________ | - | Olivier Picot | | c a d e n c e | Cadence Design Systems | --------------- 1080 Route des Dolines | 06560 Valbonne | ___________________________________________________________________ --------------------------------------------------------------------- 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 ---------------------------------------------------------------------
