Newbie here. Also a Mac consultant of 20 years (read graphically minded, not CI). Trying to set up a zfs home server that I can run headless (at this point, I wish I were headless - less headache).
Anyway I've done a bunch of work to move the VNC server over to Xvnc, downloaded the package, figured out how to get the thing out of maintenance mode and got both the inetd and vnc services running just fine. However when I try and log in from my Macbook or locally via vncviewer I get a grey screen with a stopwatch for a few seconds, the gdm apparently fizzles out, both in the viewer end and on the server itself. On the server I am knocked back into the gui login screen. I know it a a configuration problem but I'm not sure where to look first, or even find the correct logs (the gui log viewer in OS 2008.05 does not show much useful information). Gdm has apparently replaced dtlogin but I have yet to find any complete documentation on how this effects the set up and configuration of Xvnc. Any help much appreciated!
