Hello,
Have you tried with "vino"? I prefer it than a separate VNC server with
a separate display.
With Vino, I can log in locally to my desktop at office; i would lock
the screen when i leave my office and when i arrive home i would connect
to the same desktop/display i left off at office with a normal VNC
client (RealVNC for windows).
Just do:
yum install vino
vino-passwd
vino-preferences
HTH
Regards,
Khem

I don't get the problem. You don't have to be logged in on
the console, or anything like that. You just have to be able
to start a vnc server, and you can do that via ssh. What else
do you want to do?
I have no problems doing the major of the work needed via ssh and
command line. However, there are a few things that requires the GUI,
specifically Oracle, for me to do a few things. Setting the autologin
would allow me to VNC into the system, especially when the system is
rebooted.
But I can do it already.
I log in to the system via ssh and start the vnc server.
Then I create an ssh tunnel, and connect to the VNC server I just
started. VNC goes through SSH.
However, that poses a security risk for me. Basically, I'm
looking for something similar to MS Windows' RDP. Whether the user is
logged or not, anyone with the right access can RDP in. IIRC, the old
original VNC server used to do that on Windows. I haven't used VNC
server in about 10~ years.
What's the problem with what I just described?
Andrew.
