Re: VNC on SLES9 - Problem Solved!
Ranga- I'm using VNC Viewer for Win32 v.4.0. I also tested the connection with the browser. Both are working fine, but I had to change the following in /etc/sysconfig: DISPLAYMANAGER to gdm and the DEFAULT_WM to gnome. Run this command "/opt/gnome/sbin/gdmconfig" go to tab "XDMCP", and enable XDMCP. Restart the display manager: "rcxdm restart" I'm able to choose which any session at the login screen. -Channon -Original Message- From: Linux on 390 Port [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Ranga Nathan Sent: Tuesday, March 15, 2005 5:56 PM To: LINUX-390@VM.MARIST.EDU Subject: Re: VNC on SLES9 - Problem Solved!
