from a Windows system, this can be automated pretty easily, too.
Here's a WSH script that will return the info in an array if you ever need to
peak at the resolutions used automatically.
'GetVNCDims.vbs
Dims = VNCDeskDim("192.168.1.3:5800")
Wscript.Echo Dims(0),Dims(1)
Function VNCDeskDim(sHost)
sData = StringHTMLViaXML ("http://" & sHost)
aDat0 = Split(sData,vbLf)
aDat1 = Split(Replace(aDat0(1),">",""))
for x = 3 to 4
ExecuteGlobal aDat1(x)
next
VNCDeskDim = array(width, height - 32)
End Function
Function StringHTMLViaXML(sURL)
' Create an xmlhttp object:
Dim oXml
Set oXml = CreateObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP")
' Opens the connection to the remote server.
oXml.open "GET",sURL, false
' Actually Sends the request and returns the data:
oXml.send
Do
wscript.sleep 10
Loop While oXml.ReadyState<>4
StringHTMLViaXML = oXml.responseText
End Function
