I want to set up a terminal server using VNC. This will enable you to work on a remote computer and use your local computer as a display only. For this example I used SUSE Linux 13.1 but it should work same or similar on other distributions as well.
- install VNC incl. the config files for xinetd
yast -i xorg-x11-Xvnc
- edit /etc/xinet.d/vnc to contain
service vnc1
{
socket_type = stream
protocol = tcp
wait = no
user = nobody
server = /usr/bin/Xvnc
server_args = -securitytypes=none -noreset -inetd -once -query localhost -geometry 1024x768 -depth 16
type = UNLISTED
port = 5901
}
- start xinetd
xinetd
- black window only
- display manager remote access
- rcxdm restart
TroubleShooting
No password configured
- now I got an error message
No password configured for VNC Auth
-securitytypes=none
- xinetd re start
