I am NOT an X11 expert by any means, so I always just hope 'things will just work...' So I found an OI blog entry that referred to sharing the OI desktop, since the server runs headless (note: I am doing this experimentation on another server, not the real one - just practicing :) ) I clicked on the desktop sharing menu item and selected the right checkboxes. It then popped up a window having to do with a new keyring or somesuch - I haven't seen that again, even though I have enabled/disabled multiple times. Anyway, the issue: I fire up tightvnc from my windows 7 box, and give the IP of the OI server. It pops up a new window that is totally black, and I'm never prompted for a password. After a few minutes, the session times out and goes away. google has not been very helpful :( Any thoughts much appreciated... Here is the article that looked closest, but didn't resolve it for me:
