Okay, I looked over the README.inetd file and made the supposedly appropriate changes, as follows: In /etc/services vnc-1024x768x32 5950/tcp vnc-1024x768x24 5951/tcp vnc-1024x768x16 5952/tcp vnc-1024x768x8 5953/tcp vnc-800x600x32 5954/tcp vnc-800x600x24 5955/tcp vnc-800x600x16 5956/tcp vnc-800x600x8 5957/tcp vnc-640x480x32 5958/tcp vnc-640x480x24 5959/tcp vnc-640x480x16 5960/tcp vnc-640x480x8 5961/tcp In /etc/inetd.conf vnc-1024x768x32 stream tcp nowait nobody.tty /usr/bin/X11/Xvnc Xvnc -inetd -query localh$ vnc-1024x768x24 stream tcp nowait nobody.tty /usr/bin/X11/Xvnc Xvnc -inetd -query localh$ vnc-1024x768x16 stream tcp nowait nobody.tty /usr/bin/X11/Xvnc Xvnc -inetd -query localh$ vnc-1024x768x8 stream tcp nowait nobody.tty /usr/bin/X11/Xvnc Xvnc -inetd -query localh$ vnc-800x600x32 stream tcp nowait nobody.tty /usr/bin/X11/Xvnc Xvnc -inetd -query localh$ vnc-800x600x24 stream tcp nowait nobody.tty /usr/bin/X11/Xvnc Xvnc -inetd -query localh$ vnc-800x600x16 stream tcp nowait nobody.tty /usr/bin/X11/Xvnc Xvnc -inetd -query localh$ vnc-800x600x8 stream tcp nowait nobody.tty /usr/bin/X11/Xvnc Xvnc -inetd -query localh$ vnc-640x480x32 stream tcp nowait nobody.tty /usr/bin/X11/Xvnc Xvnc -inetd -query localh$ vnc-640x480x24 stream tcp nowait nobody.tty /usr/bin/X11/Xvnc Xvnc -inetd -query localh$ vnc-640x480x16 stream tcp nowait nobody.tty /usr/bin/X11/Xvnc Xvnc -inetd -query localh$ vnc-640x480x8 stream tcp nowait nobody.tty /usr/bin/X11/Xvnc Xvnc -inetd -query localh$ The next couple instructions listed assume the use of kdm instead of gdm: alter /etc/kde2/kdm/kdmrc to change Enable=false to Enable=true change /etc/kde2/kdm/kdmrc/Xaccess to allow connections. What would the gdm equivalents be (in other words, is there a gdmrc file that I need to find? I have no idea where it would be.) Or would it be in gdm.conf (in which I could not find any lines like the above)? So, unsure of what to do for those two steps, i went on to the next one... change Enable=false to Enable=true in /etc/gdm/gdm.conf Also, I went ahead and did an apt-get remove xinetd to uninstall xinetd, as these instructions assume just good old inetd, and I thought that perhaps the two were conflicting with each other. After that, I did inetd restart, and for good measure gdm-restart. What else do I need to do? Oh, and after looking at everything I posted above here, I am now wondering... Since the lines added to /etc/inetd.conf call Xvnc, is it possible that I am calling up the wrong server when I test this stuff manually? I've been using vncserver :59xx... -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
