Gerald and P.J., I just finished setting up VNC services following http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/VNC-Server and have a few comments. "2.3. Edit the server configuration" The last line should be corrected from VNCSERVERARGS[1]="-geometry 800x600" to VNCSERVERARGS[3]="-geometry 800x600" "2.4. Create xstartup scripts" Comments about the rational for

hi all, I've inherited a server with CentOS 6.4 the VNC Server starts up with the OS and its screen resolution is set to 800x600. I found that I can set the resolution by specifying the -geometry switch, but I can't find where the call to start the vncserver is set in order to change it. I know that it's not in /etc/xinetd.d (the only file there is rsync) here are the contents of

Hello, I''m doing my first steps with Xen and have my first domU up now (Debian/sid under Debian/sid). The main problem I had, was to bring up the graphical desktop of the guest with vnc4server. The solution was simple - but not easy to find for me - so let me share it: Whenever I tried to login on xdm or gdm via xvnc4viewer coming from dom0, I found errors in .xsession-errors of

Hi all, Can I VNC into an active session? I mean user can see what we do in their screen. Right now the /etc/sysconfig/vncservers is: VNCSERVERS="2:userku" VNCSERVERARGS[2]="-geometry 800x600" I have vncpasswd for userku and restart vncserver. Then, can I vnc from another pc into the active session on the userku PC? Thank you very much. -- Fajar Priyanto | Reg'd Linux

Has anybody been able to get this to work ? I have been trying multiple options until now but all give me the empty crappy desktop with black cross display... I have tried changing the server_args in the xinetd config, but that makes a connection and exits straigt away... On 1 box it works in runlevel 5, but that is obvious (IMHO)... My Config: /etc/services vnc800 5900/tcp

I'm trying to run an old (~1995) Windows game under Wine, but it requires 256 colours and won't work any higher. I've checked out the 256 colour hacks page and the X methods don't work, because I use the FGLRX drivers and they don't support 8bpp, so I'm trying VNC. I've installed vnc-server and vnc so I can play it through a 256 colour VNC connection, but so far I can

hey guys, Ok so I've installed tiger vnc on a centos 6.5 machine. And I've edited /etc/sysconfig/vncservers [root at potwsld00001 ~]# cat /etc/sysconfig/vncservers VNCSERVERS="1:mysql" And added the contents of the xstartup file for the user: [root at potwsld00001 ~]# cat /home/mysql/.vnc/xstartup #!/bin/sh [ -r /etc/sysconfig/i18n ] && . /etc/sysconfig/i18n export

Hi Jerry, I done a lot of search in google. Than I find your post, but without success for my problem. I have add your xstartup file. But I can't get it working with this startupfile. One problem is, that I can't find the x-terminal-emulator on my machine. Which package must I install for x-terminal-emulator in CentOS7 ? Maybe you can have a look at my logfile and my configuration for

Hi, I just installed CentOS7 and managed to start the vncserver service, but once I connect to the machine, the desktop resolution isn't the one which I set in the vncserver@:3.service file located in /lib/systemd/system/ directory. The content of the mention file: ---------------------------------------- [Unit] Description=Remote desktop service (VNC) After=syslog.target network.target

Hi ,all : I am a newbie to here and I also install the 389 ds in our company for managering all users account and passwd . Today , The boss asked me if the ds could set the users vnc screen geometry in the config file . Because the user's computer screen is not the same and have different geometries. If it could , then we were happy that can solve the user's vnc problem . Then , I

Thanks Frank. The below in fact worked and restarting the service. Jerry To get mate to show up use the follow text in your ~.vnc/xstartup file: #!/bin/sh # Uncomment the following two lines for normal desktop: # unset SESSION_MANAGER unset DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS # exec /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc [ -x /etc/vnc/xstartup ] && exec /etc/vnc/xstartup [ -r HOME/.Xresources ]

I'm trying to use VNC to connect my home Centos box (up to date centos 5) to my Centos 4 (also up to date) at work. I have no problem connecting. The problem occurs after logging in, for every applet in the bottom Gnome panel I get an error box from which I can choose to remove the applet from the panel, or just go on. I choose to not delete but to just go on. After I get a half dozen or so of

Following your suggestions (except 1) :- 1. Made direct port Xen 3.4.2 to Ubuntu Jaunty Server & applied ext4 patch for pygrub from Mark Johnson (MRJ) 2. Edited xend-config.sxp (xend-http-server yes) # service xend restart # ln -s /usr/local/bin/pygrub /usr/lib/xen-default/bin/pygrub # apt-get install virt-manager libvirt-bin kvm # export VIRSH_DEFAULT_CONNECT_URI="xen:///" #

 Reading my blog, you are missing the place above the point you complain.  That is :- ---------------------------------- BLOG ------------------------------------------------------------------ Notice , that x11vnc would work , but not under Xen Hypervisor. So, installed via Synaptic all SDL libraries and vnc4server. Updated ~.vnc/xstartup to start fluxbox in background. Updated /etc/rc.local :-

Hello, I'm using selenium rc for automated testing on a centos box. working on the box itself has no problem as long as i start the server through terminal. though if i wanted to run tests remotely i have a problem with firefox not knowing on which display to run. i have a vnc client running on port 1 (5801/5901) I've tried the following: export DISPLAY=1 ; java -jar

I have seen different screen-sizes for different types of guests (WinXP and Ubuntu). I''m not sure what is going on here, but WinXP available resolutions are defined tpically 4:3 ratios and the Ubuntu one has tiny 800x600. Unless I run a guest vncserver I can''t see how to specify the default vnc window size.  The reason I dont want to use a guest vncserver is I want localhost

We are running a 2-node cluster with Debian Squeeze (2.6.32-5-xen-amd64) and Xen 4.0.1 on the dom0 and Ubuntu lucid domUs. We are now using fully virtualized (HVM) vms. In our configuration the dom0 administers to domUs created and run on a SAN box accessed via private network (192.168...). A sample configuration file is pasted below. We have had little or no IO problem with HVMs created and
