I think your problem is not vnc itself but addressing the Xvnc (vncserver) for the applications. To see the application in a vncviewer that connects to vncserver:1, you have to set the DISPLAY for the applications to "vncserver:1". In your case, `export DISPLAY=A:1`, and if running at machien A, just `export DISPLAY=:1` should do. Then on machine B, `vncviewer A:1` will show the applications. If you get things working and like something more, have a look at the setup as on http://www.sourcecodecorner.com/articles/vnc/linux.asp. It gives a complete login session as if at the local console. > > P.S: > xhost + (IP number of machine B) > export DISPLAY=(IP number of machine B):1.0 (in DISPLAY 1:0) > > doesn't work, so the private IP number is unknown to a exterior > machine. Another way?? The Xvnc (vncserver) does run at machine A so X11 addressing must be for machine A. Just to get things working: xhost + export DISPLAY=(IP number of machiune A):1.0 > CBee --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the line: 'unsubscribe vnc-list' in the message BODY See also: http://www.uk.research.att.com/vnc/intouch.html ---------------------------------------------------------------------
