Hello,
I just installed the latest version of RealVNC on my Windows XP box
and it works great.
I then installed it on a Redhat Linux WS4 system using the RPM distribution.
I added the following file to /etc/xinetd.d:
service Xvnc
{
disable = no
socket_type = stream
protocol = tcp
port = 5900
wait = yes
user = nobody
server = /usr/bin/Xvnc
server_args = Xvnc -inetd -query -once securitytypes=none
}
and the following to /etc/services:
Xvnc 5900/tcp
and then did a:
service xinet restart
But, whenever I try to connect to the system with either the Windows
or Linux version of "vncviewer", I get about a 1000 of the following
in the /var/log/messages file, and the connection fails:
Aug 31 20:02:36 mail xinetd[21796]: START: Xvnc pid=22999 from=<no address>

Aug 31 20:02:36 mail xinetd[23004]: warning: can't get client
address: Transport endpoint is not connected
I have no idea what to try and Googles haven't turned up anything useful.
Thanks for your help!
