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? Dirk
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.

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.
