Hi,
Thanks for such a fast response. I typed vncserver at the command line and
it asked me for a password. It said I would require password to enter the
desktop. I did not set any before so gave some dummy password. It again
showed Verify and I typed the same password again. Then the screen showed
something like
for user padmaja, the startup script is in /home/padmaja/.vnc/Xstartup
the startup applications are in /home/padmaja/.vnc/Xstartup
the log file is in /home/padmaja/.vnc/sipserver.com.log
After this I typed ps aux and saw that there is a Xvnc running againt pid
11435.
Now, I tried to connect to the Centos PC from Windows using Vnc client and
it gave the error
"unable to connect to host: connection refused (10061)."
I cant understand what the issue is. I am however able to connect to Windows
PCs from VNC on windows.
Regards,
Padmaja

Subject: Reg. VNC server and Windows and Centos interworking
Hi all,
I have a Windows XP PC and a Centos PC (Centos 4.3 release, kernel-
2.6.9-34.EL) which are in the same LAN. Currently, I am able to use VNC
server on the centos to view the Windows PC, but not able to view the
Centos PC from the Windows PC. This applies for even file sharing also.
The samba server is running and I can view the windows network from Centos
PC but in the Windows network, not able to view the Centos PC. Also not
able to print from Centos to the LAN printer. Any help is greatly
appreciated.
Thank You,
Padmaja
Padmaja,
Have you started vnc on the Centos system - just type vncserver on the
command line.
Rob
