Dear Sirs,
I found very interesting the "vnc way" to connect (using local network) a knoppix box with a m$ box.
Bacause I am not very experienced on subject, is it possible for someone to guide me in a step by step manner and using as much details as necessary to be able to do that???
Please include the steps that required to configure my m$ box (as VNC viewer) and knoppix box (as VNC Server).
For your info the required programs (RealVNC Viewer + RealVNC Server) it is already installed at m$ box and my knoppix box but not configured yet.
Thanks a lot for your time and your help.
Best Regards
Mike Kranidis

--If sharing the KDE desktop doesn't work:

' mkdir ~/.vnc 'Code:$vncStartup = "~/.vnc/XSession";
' jstar ~/.vnc/XSession '
' chmod +x ~/.vnc/XSession ' == Make sure it's executableCode:#!/bin/sh # # Based on /etc/X11/Xsession # # global Xsession file -- used by display managers and xinit (startx) # initialize variables for use by all session scripts OPTIONFILE=/etc/X11/Xsession.options SYSMODMAP=/etc/X11/Xmodmap USRMODMAP=$HOME/.Xmodmap SYSRESOURCES=/etc/X11/Xresources USRRESOURCES=$HOME/.Xresources SYSSESSIONDIR=/etc/X11/Xsession.d STARTUP=$HOME/.xsession ALTSTARTUP=$HOME/.Xsession ERRFILE=$HOME/.xsession-errors xrdb $HOME/.Xresources xsetroot -solid grey # XXX You can also use ' xloadimage ' to load pics instead #xterm -geometry 80x24+10+10 -ls -title "$VNCDESKTOP Desktop" & #twm & #icewm & #/opt/gnome/bin/sawfish & ##/usr/bin/sawfish & xset s off rxvt -geometry 80x34+10+10 -ls -title "$VNCDESKTOP Desktop" & # XXX load desired windowmanager here /usr/bin/sawfish & # Note: See ~/.xsession for which window manager to load!
--You need to set a one-time password:
' vncpasswd '
--Now, to start the X window session on the Linux side:
' vncserver :2 -geometry 900x700 ' == Or whatever size you want
# Connect using vncviewer linuxbox:5902 - OR - http://linuxbox:5802
#vncserver -kill :2 == To bring VNC down
# IF ssh -2 -C -L 5992:linuxbox:5902 linuxbox
# THEN vncviewer localhost:5992
--In my experience you will get much better response when using a compressed ssh session as indicated above. Also dink around with the VNCviewer options on the windows side - different encodings can give faster displays. I've gotten good results over compressed ssh with RRE encoding and restricting pixels to 8-bit, even when running over 100Mb Ethernet. You can gauge the response by window-shading (in Sawfish, double click on a window titlebar and it rolls up like a window shade) and then unshading the window, and seeing how long it takes for the display to resolve itself. Using a slow encoding can take several seconds!
--A couple of notes:
o DO NOT run vncserver as root! Always run as a less-privileged user, for security and safety reasons.
o By starting vncserver as :2, you have room for an extra X-session locally on the Linux box (default is :0, and if you want you can still startx -- :1 as another user.)
