Sure, it just so happens that I hosed my system (got a little overzealous stripping out extraneous packages) and can start from a clean install...! Hey, off topic a bit, what's your opinion on using tar for backups? Here's something I found for Ubuntu: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=35087 Byron Veale Webmaster The New Jersey State Library -----Original Message----- From: centos-docs-bounces at centos.org [mailto:centos-docs-bounces at centos.org] On Behalf Of pjwelsh Sent: Wednesday, February 24, 2010 4:27 PM To: Mail list for wiki articles Subject: Re: Proposed edit to VNC server Wiki entry On 02/23/2010 02:23 PM, Byron Veale wrote: > > No worries.

Well Byron, just as you suspected, there is some missing info in the vnc-ltsp-config section of the VNC-Server howto (http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/VNC-Server#head-29f6855e8f3684dc6c005d439 9f60886edf611ec). There is only the need to have: [xdmcp] Enable=true [security] DisallowTCP=false in the /etc/gdm/custom.conf (plus "init 3; init 5", plus any iptables issues, plus any selinux issues). I did not even remember that the modifying of /etc/gdm/custom.conf was being handled by a "sanity script". A quick google'n turns up indications that others have tried and failed to use these docs (but did not report it to our forums). Thank you for your patience and understanding in helping figure this issue out. Would you like to take the step of validating for you that the only additions are the 2 custom.conf additions (plus "init 3; init 5")? Thank you PJ _______________________________________________ CentOS-docs mailing list CentOS-docs at centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos-docs
