I'm trying to setup vnc on an AIX 4.3 box running CDE.
I installed vnc-3.3.3.2.exe and zlib-1.1.3.2.exe from bull's freeware
archive,
edited /etc/services adding:
vnc10x7 5901/tcp # vnc session
edited /etc/inetd.conf adding:
vnc10x7 stream tcp nowait root /usr/local/bin/Xvncinetd Xvncinetd 1024x768 16
where Xvncinetd is a script:
#!/bin/sh
/usr/local/bin/Xvnc -inetd -query localhost -once -geometry $1
-depth $2 -fp /usr/lib/X11/fonts/,/usr/lib/X11/fonts/misc/,/usr/lib/X
11/fonts/75dpi/,/usr/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi/,/usr/lib/X11/fonts/ibm850/,/usr/lib/X11/fonts/Type1/
I got fonts path entering this command at dtterm:
xset q
Restarted inetd with:
refresh -s inetd
If I try to connect to the AIX box from a w2k client with realvnc
3.3.7 viewer, I get this message:
Unknown authentication scheme
If I try to connect to the AIX box from a w2k client with telnet on
port 5901, I get this message:
RFB 003.003
Fatal server error:
XDMCP fatal error: Session declined No valid address
If I try to connect locally, starting vncviewer from a dtterm, I get
this message:
VNC server supports protocol version 3.3 (viewer 3.3)
No authentication needed
Desktop name "root's x11 desktop (aixbox.domain:2)"
Connected to VNC server, using protocol version 3.3
VNC server default format:
16 bits per pixel.
Most significant byte first in each pixel.
True colour: max red 63 green 31 blue 31, shift red 0 green 6
blue 11
Using default colormap and translating from BGR233. Pixel format:
8 bits per pixel.
True colour: max red 7 green 7 blue 3, shift red 0 green 3 blue 6
Got 188 exact BGR233 colours out of 256
Using 4 existing shared colours
Same machine: preferring raw encoding
Server has turned zlib compression on
Unknown message type 70 from VNC server
an "xlogfile" is generated under /tmp directory but it's empty.
Could someone help me to solve this problem?
Thanks in advance!
Pietro
