Hi, I'm trying to start a vnc server via an expect script which does a "su - <another_username>". It looks pretty simple, but although the vnc server starts it seems it does not run execute xstartup properly and I get the grey background. I do not think it is a problem with the xstartup script itself since when execute the su command form a terminal everything works perfectly.
Here is roughly what I'm doing : | #!/usr/local/bin/expect | | spawn su - $username -c "/path/to/vncserver" | expect "Password: " | send "$password\r" | expect eof { puts "Received EOF." } | exit 0 Thanks for your help.
