Hi Predator:

It is possible to allow root to login from any terminal, however this is not
recommended because this makes your system vulnerable. If you want to allow
it
any way use the configuration tool provided with your distribution (e.g. SuSE
Linux's configuration tool is yast), DON'T DO IT MANUALLY if you aren't a
linux
expert.

There is an other way to do it (I haven't been able to test it myself). Look
at
   http://www.uk.research.att.com/vnc/extras.html
the item concerning iXvnc, which will lead you to
   http://www.dei.isep.pt/~andre/extern/ixvcn.htm

Regards

Daniel

thnx, it works that far.
now can i make linux start the xvnc for the root-user every time it starts?
The problem is, that i can't logon to the linux station via telnet using my
root-password. That means, every time i want to start a xvnc-server, i
would have to go physically to the puter, login... can someone make life
easier?

Hi Predator,

with your distribution you got a file Vncviewer (don't take the wrong one
starting with lowercase "v"). Use this one as your $HOME/.Xresources (only
one
"s" and don't forget the dot before the "X").

Regards

Daniel

ok, i have checked it all, but there still seems to be an error:
in the <host>:<session>.log - file there is this error:
xrdb:     no such file or directory
xrdb:     can't open file '/root/.Xressources'

i think i must change something in the xstartup - file, but what exactly?

thnx.

Hi Predator or 12345 or whatever your real name is:

Assuming /usr/local/bin in in your PATH-Environment variable check first if
your
vncserver can be executed by everybody or at least by yourself. Otherwise
change
file access control attributes:

   chmod a+x /usr/local/bin/*vnc* # (vncpasswd, vncviewer, vncconnect, Xvnc,
   vncserver)

Check then if you have perl installed (e.g. "which perl"), then if you have
write access to the "/tmp/.X11-unix" directory. A file "X<session>..." will
be
placed there.

After invoking vncserver twice (the very first time you will be asked to
define
a password to be used later with the vncviewer) check the file
"$HOME/.vnc/<host>:<session>.log" (The exact name will be reported to you).
If
no error is reported check if Xvnc is running (e.g. "ps -ef | grep -i vnc").

Check last if you can connect to the local host invoking

   vncviewer <host>:<session>.log

All this can be read in the installation guide.

Regards

Daniel

could someone pls help me with this?

i copied the vnc-directory into the "/usr/local/bin"-directory and then
tried to start the server with vncserver. -->permission denied.Now i know
i'm doing something wring, but what is it?

1. do i have to start vncserver in a x11-window?
2. (i tried both answers to 1., so) what could i possibly be doing wrong?

thnx
