Pinging is no problem. Can reach win98 box. When I type 'vncviewer' in terminal I get this message:

[luc@luc luc]$ vncviewer
bash: vncviewer: command not found
[luc@luc luc]$ vncviewer
bash: vncviewer: command not found

when I try vncserver in terminal, I get following message:
[luc@luc luc]$ vncserver

You will require a password to access your desktops.

Password:
Verify:
xauth: (argv):1: bad display name "luc:1" in "add" command
Couldn't start Xvnc; trying default font path.
Please set correct fontPath in the vncserver script.

New 'X' desktop is luc:1

Creating default startup script /home/luc/.vnc/xstartup
Starting applications specified in /home/luc/.vnc/xstartup
Log file is /home/luc/.vnc/luc:1.log

[luc@luc luc]$ vncviewer 192.168.0.148:1
bash: vncviewer: command not found
[luc@luc luc]$



Then I downloaded VNC from web, unzipped everything in 'home/luc/VNC' but don't know how to get VNCviewer running, how can I install it?

thanks

Can you ping the IP address of the Win98 box? If so, read on...if not,
then you've got a problem...!

You're going to have to make sure that the VNC Server that's running on
the Win98 box has a password set for administative access. You should be
able to click START \ PROGRAMS \ VNC \ ADMINISTATIVE TOOLS \ SHOW
DEFAULT SETTINGS - in there you can set/reset the password for access.
Make sure you put one in there and click "OK". On the linux box, start
your VNC Viewer with:

vncviewer XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX:0 (if you do it from a terminal you'll see if
there are any errors.

This should work (I use VNC constantly for PC's running Windows and for
Mac's) - if it doesn't work, then we might need to start looking into
your TCP/IP networking...

VNC is fairly foolproof - it's dependent on IP networking - unless you
can't ping the Win98 machine.
