The answer is really quite simple, I don´t know which version of KDE are you running but anyway. I can tell as far as my expirence tell me that you are using an old version of VNC so the easiest way to do what you want to do is to upgrade your kde version to 3.1 or 3.1.4 because in that versions inside the Control Center there is the possibility to configure desktop sharing through the gui, Plus the Fact that the VNC version that is in that KDE is master and more stable than the original VNC thzt you Stara through the console. Any doubts ask me again.

I saw a thread on this not too long ago, and just revisited it, but I am still a little confused. I am hoping to access my Linux machine at work and have access to the existing KDE environment as I left it. I telecommute part of the week and often need to access something exactly as I left it. When I run the vncserver command on the remote machine (in this case the one at my office):
~> vncserver :0 I get A VNC server is already running as :0
However, If I try to use the vncviewer from my machine at home:
~> vncviewer 10.xxx.xx.xxx:0 I get vncviewer: ConnectToTcpAddr: connect: Connection refused Unable to connect to VNC server
If however I use: ~>vncviewer 10.xxx.xx.xxx:1
I get a viewer window consisting of an xdisplay with a xterm window open. What am I missing? How can I use the environment just like I left it?
TIA, Darrell
