Newbie: Cannot connect from XP machine to Linux machine

[John Aldrich]

Have you tried telnetting to the FC3 box on port 590x? Telnet to the port
that FC3 has vnc server running on and see if you get "RFB 003.008" or
something similar. If you do, you know that VNC server is running on the FC3
machine. If not, either VNC Server is not running or you are having some
sort of network issue trying to reach the FC3 machine. To rule out a network
issue, ping the Fedora machine and see if you get a response.

Hi all

I've trying to connect the remote Fedora 3 Linux m/c (the VNC server)
from the local Windows XP SP2 m/c.  I've disabled Windows firewall for
the VNC.  How do I check whether the VNC server is running at the
remote side, and what is method to mention the remote ip address in
the viewer window on my local Windows m/c.

Thanks
Dinesh
