Hi, I'm looking for some help or advice getting VNC configured on 10.3 (running Gnome) in "remote control" mode - ie to make it connect to the physical X session rather than the more "normal" mode where you login to a separate vnc session.
I can get VNC running in the "normal" mode using YAST, Remote Administration (VNC) and choosing "Allow Remote Administration", then running vncviewer <ipaddress>:5901 on the other machine or pointing a browser at <ipaddress>:5801.
From what I've read, I thought the way to do this was to go to the Remote Access section in SAX and enable it, but it doesn't seem to do anything - if I enable it's Remote Access and disable Remote Admin in YAST, I can't connect at all. If I enable both,I get the same result as only enabling Remote Admin in YAST (ie connect to a new session on port 5901 or 5801 in a browser). So SAX doesn't appear to do anything!
Is there a "preferred" way to do this in opensuse?
Cheers,
I think port 5900 or 5800 will connect to the running display:0. Your choice of ports is designed to connect to a new display:1. I am very new to all this also, so maybe others with more experience will offer input.
