Hi, I am looking for a solution to this too. I have test installed SuSE 8.2 and liked a lot that under inetd services I can autotstart a vncserver that presents med with the KDE logon screen. (this is when I use vnclient vncserver:10 or 11 But I too miss a way of connecting to my box on screen 0 as see what is on the default screen. You mentioned krfb, since I am new to suse 8.2 I am not sur what it is but I guess that is the feature that after I log on kde, I can invite other to share my desktop. Is there any way to autostart that feature as well ? so that I don't need to log in KDE to share screen 0 Thanks Andreas -----Daniel Eckl <daniel.eckl@gmx.de> wrote: ----- To: suse-kde@suse.com From: Daniel Eckl <daniel.eckl@gmx.de> Date: 24-06-2003 19:47 Subject: Re: [suse-kde] vncserver Hi Jianyu! I'm very, very sure that this is exactly the opposite of that what he wants to do. He doesn't want to start a new session, he wants to connect with vnc to the current local display running a local session of kde, like the way winvnc works. While this is not possible without a hacked vncserver, he can use krfb which is a vnc compatible server showing the current running local kde 3.1 session. krfb is included in KDE since 3.1 and can be compiled against kde 3.0, too.

I think when all the thing are correct, you will find the file /root/.vnc/xstartup. So replace the original with the following line : kde -geometry 1024X860+10+10 -ls -title "what you want" or you can replace kde with gnome, when you want use gnomw. Don´t forget, use vncviewer like this, 192.168.0.1:1 or 2 and so on. Shanshui

How can I configure vncserver, so that it is possible just to watch the standard desktop? vncserver always starts a new display but I want to see (with vncviewer) whats on the current display. I tried it with ipadress:0 but it didn't work. What do I have to do? Is it possible at all?
