it is a very nice solution, i did not think about starting vnc server via ssh when needing it. a few thing you should improve: use ssh keys so you don't have to bother with password files. create a special user that will be able to ssh to the station to launch the vnc server, dont use root. for this purpose, i have created a user called vnc, copied ssh public key in ~vnc/.ssh/authorized_keys. i have modified your script as followed: #! /bin/sh test -z "$1" && echo "Please type your client's IP/name .." && exit 1 client=$1 ssh -l vnc -L 5900:localhost:5900 $client 'export DISPLAY=:0.0;/usr/X11R6/bin/x11vnc -display :1 -shared -localhost'& sleep 3 vncviewer localhost exit 0 anyway, thanks for this nice job > > Hope to help, and waiting for any comments, suggestions, reproachs from all > gurus at the list. > > Thanks for such a great software as is LTSP!!!!!! > > Greetings from Bolivia -- -- Thomas Constans -- http://www.opendoor.fr [EMAIL PROTECTED] 04 78 68 17 34 ------------------------------------------------------- SF email is sponsored by - The IT Product Guide Read honest & candid reviews on hundreds of IT Products from real users.
