Hi Rob
I find that NoMachine is more reliable and performs much better on lower
bandwidths and If this go wrong you can ssh into the server and restart
it using the cli. You don't need to install the full version on the
clients server/client just the client enterprise version (free) will do
the trick.
You can also try the NX open source version if you wish.
Thanks
Stan

I have a client who is running RD 2.19.3 running on CentOS 7,
installed according to the Paravel instructions. Most of his people
are doing their shows from home via Comrex Access. They are VNC'ing in
to the Rivendell system in the air studio to control rdairplay and
doing their breaks live via the Comrex link.
Most of the time it works flawlessly, but once in a while the x11vnc
server will either crash or freeze. When it happens, the current song
will run out and they'll be silent for several minutes while they go
looking for someone to VNC in and fix the problem.
This morning, x11vnc froze; I had to use kill -9 to kill it, and when
I restarted it, the new process immediately froze. Only rebooting the
system got it working -- not something I like doing when I'm an hour
and a half away and there's no one at the station.
I have tried downloading the latest x11vnc code and compiling it
manually; that hasn't helped. The logs don't offer any clues.
I know this isn't strictly a Rivendell problem, but I'm wondering if
any of y'all have encountered it. Is there a better option than
x11vnc? I suppose I could try vino.
Thanks,
Rob
