Thanks Corni on the info. It works by running vncviewer on both sides. However, my concern is, won't it cause an increase of bandwidth. These 2 hosts are connected via ISDN links (BRI). Please advice.

There is one major difference between winvnc (M$Windows based vnc) and Xvnc (unix/X11 based vnc): Winvnc copies the console display. Xvnc gives a new, fresh display. For Xvnc: if you want to use applications both local and remote, start them in the Xvnc display and use vncviewer at both sides. >From unix, you can force X11 applications in the Xvnc with the -display option or by setting the $DISPLAY variable, just as with normal X11 display. > > I've no issue running both vncserver & vncviewer on win2k platform. --------------------------------------------------------------------- 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 ---------------------------------------------------------------------
