Hi Friends,

I am trying to run vnc on port 8080 on Centos 3.4 . There are no kde or gdm packages installed as we only need xserver. I have installed

XFree86-font-utils-4.3.0-78.EL XFree86-75dpi-fonts-4.3.0-78.EL XFree86-base-fonts-4.3.0-78.EL XFree86-xdm-4.3.0-78.EL XFree86-libs-data-4.3.0-78.EL XFree86-4.3.0-78.EL XFree86-libs-4.3.0-78.EL XFree86-xfs-4.3.0-78.EL XFree86-Mesa-libGL-4.3.0-78.EL XFree86-xauth-4.3.0-78.EL XFree86-truetype-fonts-4.3.0-78.EL XFree86-Mesa-libGLU-4.3.0-78.EL XFree86-100dpi-fonts-4.3.0-78.EL vnc vnc-server

and I want to run vnc only one for 1 user but with multipe client connections.

Plesae guide me how to configure VNC to run on port 8080 and for only 1 user.

Have you done any research into how VNC is configured? It's pretty well documented and straightforward, you might benefit from trying it first and then asking if you have a specific problem.

To get vncserver to listen on 8080 you will need to configure a display that is equal to 8080-5900.
