Alex,

While you can do that, it's obviously only useful if you want to run X11
applications, not standard Mac applications.

Hi Freddy,

OSXvnc is based on our old VNC 3 system and appears to, like the VNC 4
system, have been developed to remain compatible with VNC 3.

Subject: I have Desktop/Font resolution issues it seems



Hello, I have recently installed VNC 4.1 on an HP-UX 11.11 Unix server
and also downloaded the Windows VIEWER version. I am able to get my
desktop to display as you can see from my printscreen capture, but the
FONTS/TEXT appears very out of shape, like I don't have the correct
fonts. I did try to look on the message boards and found some suggested
changes, like adding the font paths to the vncserver file, but no luck

Any suggestions on what I may need to do? Do I need to have a
.Xresources file under my Home Directory?



Thanks,

attempt to connect, the customer reports an error message popping up on

James,
That is true. I did not think of that. I am not a mac person, but I 
thought they use some sort of X server as a foundation for UI. I guess not.

RE: setting server rfb port to non-default - on the vncviewer

2006-10-20 Thread Kumar, Siva
John,

 vncviewer -geometry 1440x1062 -passwd z ipaddr::4918:19
/dev/null  and that worked.

I think the ':19' after the port is immaterial. Try connecting to
ipaddr::4918:abcd or even ipaddr::4918abcd; it works. It makes
sense because you cannot have more than 1 display listening on a single
port (the second Xvnc will complain that it cannot bind to the given
port) unless using inetd.

-siva.

John,

No, you don't - the syntax you are specifying to your VNC Viewer
(host::port:display) is not valid.  The two valid syntaxes are:

Host:port_or_display  (display if 0-99, port otherwise) and
Host::port(always port)

i.e. you specify *either* a VNC display number *or* a TCP port number.

VNC display numbers 0-99 are just a short-hand for TCP port numbers 
5900 to 5999.

I hate to argue with someone who has a realvnc email but my recent
experience is in direct contracdiction of what you have written:

1).I started my vncserver with options
   vncserver :19 -geometry 1440x1062 -name x -rfbport 4918
(I can explain why but not relevant)

Here is the Xvnc process:
Xvnc :19 -desktop xx ... -geometry 1440x1062 ... -rfbwait 12
-rfbauth  -rfbport 5919 -fp ...  -rfbport 4918
NB the two -rfbport options.  - the first (I assume) always
specified, 
and the second from my vncserver option. And to show which one took 
precedence:
     here is netstat output to show which port it actually is
listening
on:

netstat -an | egrep -e 4918|5919
tcp4   0  0  *.4918 *.*
LISTEN
tcp4   0  0  ipaddr.4918   other_ipaddr.34849   
ESTABLISHED


2)and now here is the command I used on my workstation to connect :
vncviewer -geometry 1440x1062 -passwd z ipaddr::4918:19 /dev/null
 and that worked.

Does that convince you?   If not - try it!

The :19 there is telling it to start X server 19 which, by default, would
start on port 5919 (hence you get that option in the Xvnc process).
This is then overridden by the -rfbport option in your command line,
hence the server listens on port 4918.

 2)and now here is the command I used on my workstation to connect :
 vncviewer -geometry 1440x1062 -passwd z ipaddr::4918:19 /dev/null 
 and that worked.

 Does that convince you?   If not - try it!

The X server you specify here is used purely to figure out which port to
connect to - it's not used in any other way by the client.  If you
explicitly specify the port then it doesn't need that.  Have you tried
starting the viewer with just:
  vncviewer -geometry 1440x1062 -passwd z ipaddr::4918

Anything beyond the port number is (presumably) ignored by the vncviewer
application (whether that's by design or purely coincidental I don't
know).

Cheers,
Robin

RE: setting server rfb port to non-default - on the vncviewer

2006-10-20 Thread James Weatherall
John,

I'm afraid that you are mistaken.  In the example you give, either

ipaddr::4918

Or

ipaddr:4918

Are valid, and will work.

ipaddr::4918:19 is not a valid server specification but happens to work
because of the way VNC Viewer interprets the port/display number
specification.

Cheers,

Wez @ RealVNC Ltd.

RE: Driver not support Planar/chunky

Caleb,

TightVNC is based on the old VNC 3 codebase, which required chunky pixels.

If you upgrade the server to VNC 4, you shouldn't see this issue.
