I am having problems with building and running xVNC 3.3.3r2 on AIX. I installed the patch from Chuck Hines and tried compiling the source code. The only problem that I had during the compile was that when the Makefile in the Xvnc/programs/Xserver/hw/ directory was run, it would stop with the errors: cleaning in programs/Xserver/hw/vnc... "Makefile", line 548: make: 1254-055 Dependency line needs colon or double colon operator. "Makefile", line 551: make: 1254-055 Dependency line needs colon or double colon operator. "Makefile", line 554: make: 1254-055 Dependency line needs colon or double colon operator. "Makefile", line 556: make: 1254-055 Dependency line needs colon or double colon operator.

"Makefile", line 617: make: 1254-055 Dependency line needs colon or double colon operator. make: 1254-058 Fatal errors encountered -- cannot continue. make: 1254-004 The error code from the last command is 2. I found that some tabs were missing in the Makefile and that some extra stuff was added to the end of the file . I added the tabs and deleted the extra stuff that Imakefile had added. I'm not sure if this was correct but make was able to run correctly and Xvnc got built. My next problem was running vncserver. At first it could not find the Speedo font directory (it was not loaded in the default directory with the rest of the fonts) so put the Speedo directory with the fonts in my xvnc directory and I edited the line in vncserver from: # $cmd .= " -fp /usr/lib/X11/fonts/misc/,/usr/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi/"; to: $cmd .= " -fp /usr/lib/X11/fonts/misc/,/usr/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi/,/projects/maitai/utils/xvcn/Speedo"; Now when I run vncserver, the .vnc/akamai:1.log states: 29/06/01 12:11:01 Xvnc version 3.3.3.3 29/06/01 12:11:01 Copyright (C) AT&T Laboratories Cambridge. 29/06/01 12:11:01 All Rights Reserved. 29/06/01 12:11:01 See http://www.uk.research.att.com/vnc for information on VNC 29/06/01 12:11:01 Desktop name 'X' (akamai:1) 29/06/01 12:11:01 Protocol version supported 3.3 29/06/01 12:11:01 Listening for VNC connections on TCP port 5901 29/06/01 12:11:01 Listening for HTTP connections on TCP port 5801 29/06/01 12:11:01 URL http://akamai:5801 xrdb: A remote host refused an attempted connect operation. 1356-605 xrdb: Can't open display 'akamai:1' 1356-265 xsetroot: Unable to open display: akamai:1. twm: unable to open display "akamai:1" xterm Xt error: Can't open display: akamai:1 and a ps auwx doesn't show that xvnc is running. Thanks for any help in advance.
