On Linux/Unix, run:
vncserver -geometry 1024x768 -depth 24
If you haven't already run it, then it will ask you to secure it with a password.
Next it will run and give you display information:That :# is very important to get vnc connected.Code:New 'my-test-machine:1 (james)' desktop is my-test-machine:1
Starting applications specified in /home/james/.vnc/xstartup
Log file is /home/james/.vnc/my-test-machine:1.log
On windows I use RealVNC 4 from www.realvnc.com. On linux I krdc which is the built in KDE remote desktop connection which knows the vnc protocol, command: krdc. Or I use the xvncviewer xvnc4viewer commands. When connecting to a linux/unix vnc desktop you MUST include the display info, the :#, so that it knows to connect to that desktop. So to connect to my-test-machine I would enter the machine's hostname/IP immediatley follows by the display number: 192.168.100.83:1.
This display number is necessary to connected to a linux/unix machine because you can have multiple vnc sessions for multiple users from 1 machine. If you trying to connect to a vnc running on a windows machine, then the display number is not necessary as VNC for windows can not provide multiple desktops for multiple users from 1 machine.
If you successfully get connected to a linux/unix box and you do not see your usual KDE/GNOME/IceWM/WindowMaker/etc desktop, then it is because vnc did not start your normal X session but rather ran a boring ugly twm x session. To change this you must edit the /home/username/.vnc/xstartup file and tell it to start either KDE/GNOME/IceWM/WindowMaker/etc.
To end a vnc session on a linux/unix machine, use the command line:
vncserver -kill :#
where the :# is the display number of the session you want to kill. You do not need to run it from the physical console or a ssh session. You can run it right from a running vnc session so that it will self terminate.
I hope this helps.

i belive vnc for debian is java based. so you have to view it with your web browser.
will show the listerning port its using.Code:netstat -tupln
The web interface to VNC is available on all platforms (there is nothing different about debian). However, VNC works better and faster using a proper VNC client. I use the standard realvnc vncserver + vncviewer and they work well.Quote:

Follow the instructions on the website and you will be up and running in 5-10 mins.
Marked for later. When I do my VNC hookup.
