I've never set up vncserver like this, but if your windows vncviewer is asking for a password, then it should be correct. > > when I start vnc client on my PS WINXP I get an windows grey out not the > login screen. The most common reason for the grey screen is an unmodified ~/.vnc/xstartup file. The standard one that's installed typically calls twm. I recommend modifying it to read as follows: #!/bin/sh exec /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc If you do that, then vncserver will start whatever your default X environment is. I also have a simple HOWTO on tunneling vnc (I use tight-vnc) through ssh, server on Redhat, client on windows.
