vncserver running on linux .

Hello,

I get a grey output when connecting using vnc from a win vnc client to
a vncserver on RH 9.0.
When I run xstartup in the /.vnc dir I get the following.

X connection to localhost:10.0 broken (explicit kill or server
shutdown).

Thanks.

If you can't get an answer here, try this list:

What does the VNC log say? I bet you need to search the www.realvnc.com
mailing list archives for "Session Manager".

Don't do that.

Some mistakes are too much fun to only make once

You are not supposed to run .vnc/xstartup. You should run the
vncserver script and have your window manager get started in
..vnc/xstartup. I have my startkde script there.

Just edit ./vnc/xstartup and comment 2 lines indicated inside the file.

Run again vncserver to create a new window with the new options indicated in
xtartup.

Doing that you can connect to your XDesktop.

Hello guys,

I have tried everything you said already but it still doesn't work.

I used vncserver and not .vnc/xstartup but this wasn't working.
I edited the file and uncommected the twm line.
I have an entry for startkde.

Nothing.

Thanks for replying.

You cut off way to much. Start at the beginning.
