CentOS - Feb 2008 - Reg. VNC server and Windows and Centos interworking

Hi all,

I have a Windows XP PC and a Centos PC (Centos 4.3 release, kernel- 2.6.9-34.EL)
which are in the same LAN. Currently, I am able to use VNC server on the centos
to view the Windows PC, but not able to view the Centos PC from the Windows PC.
This applies for even file sharing also. The samba server is running and I can
view the windows network from Centos PC but in the Windows network, not able to
view the Centos PC. Also not able to print from Centos to the LAN printer. Any
help is greatly appreciated.

Thank You,
Padmaja

Padmaja,

Have you started vnc on the Centos system - just type vncserver on the 
command line.
