Kevin, the file you are looking for is in your login directory under .vnc After you log in as the use you want to start the vncserver do the following
cd .vnc do an ls -la and look for a file named Xstartup or xstartup edit that file and change gnome-session & to the command to start KDE, it slips my mind right now. If you are using other than the vncserver that came with Fedora then you need to look at the doc set for it and edit the startup file -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Nancy Anthracite Sent: Wednesday, November 09, 2005 7:58 PM To: hardhats-members@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: Re: [Hardhats-members] tight vnc server question Look on this page under the dotroot users posting.

I removed /tmp/ksocket-kdtop and /tmp/ksocket-root and rebooted. ->no difference. It still wants to take my vncserver session into the gnome desktop. It seems like before I might have run vncserver from the console, after logging in with a kde desktop. Maybe I'll try that....
