Here I use vnc to a linux box with inetd setup (see: http://www.sourcecodecorner.com/articles/vnc/linux.asp). I connect to vncserver:52 and in the title it shows between ()-s the value of ${DISPLAY} of the resulting X11 display, not the requested vncserver number. So if you read the vncviewer window title and exctract the text between the ()-s, then you have the $DISPLAY value to address the X11 display. How to read this title is os-dependent. If the above does not work, try the vnc defaults: it's the same number. The vncview displays use port 5900 + display number The X11 displays use port 6000 + display number CBee _______________________________________________ VNC-List mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.realvnc.com/mailman/listinfo/vnc-list
