After installing DSL to a older notebookI am able do connect via WLAN to my home.net clicking prism2. Then I use VCNviewer to get access to a windows xp computer. Without Linux experience I need some help to copy the VCN icon and add the tcp/ip address 192.168.0.xxx and the password to the command behind. But how? any help available ? thanks Thomas Posted by mikshaw on Mar. 02 2006,16:11
create a password file with the vncpasswd command, then you can use the vncviewer "-passwd" parameter to point the program to that file.< http://www.die.net/doc/linux/man/man1/vncpasswd.1.html > < http://www.die.net/doc/linux/man/man1/vncviewer.1.html > Posted by mollo on Mar. 03 2006,07:41
If I disable the password within the VNCServer, there is noProblem to start the VNC connection: 1. Open XTerminal 2. VNCViewer 192.168.0.xxx But with password enabled, I did not know where to store the passwortfile: testpc VNCViewer 192.168.0.101 -passwd testpc The second problem: where to find the command behind the VNCViewer icon displayed on the screen.

The password file is created by the vncpasswd command (defaults to /home/dsl/.vnc/passwd). Please read the manual pages listed above for details.The icon command can be accessed by right-click on the icon, and choosing "properties". |
