The other way around has much more options as linux is a multiuser system. But try the following on your linux machine: start->Control Panel->Internet & Networking->Desktop Sharing->Access There you: Click "Allow uninvited connections", Unclick "Confirm uninvited...", Click "Allow univited connections to controll the desktop" enter a password and Click "Apply"

I'm coming to you via vncviewer on my XP machine through my suse machine. Pretty cool!!! A bit slow, but... very nice!
2 Questions:
-about desktop sharing in Yast - Invitations are timed - how can I allow untimed invitations?
-when connecting to SuSE from XP, the invitation has to be accepted on the SuSE machine or it will not go through, even though the settings in vnc viewer do not require it. Is it because the user is logged on? How can I change that requirement?

Okay, Bernd...
On the linux you need to go here: start ->Control Panel ->Internet & Networking ->Desktop Sharing ->Access
There you: Click "Allow uninvited connections",
Unclick "Confirm uninvited...", =================== Click "Allow univited connections to controll the desktop"
enter a password and Click "Apply"

I see the error of my ways... I missed your instructions on unchecking "confirm uninvited". I also had created an invitation that was timed. Once I unchecked the box and deleted the open invitation I created, all worked well. Thanks!!! Bernd
