Hello Noah,

CentOS seems to have it, I will be taking a look at it later on today. Thanks for the tip.

The Vino package was installed on my installation by default, but I am unable to connect to the CentOS 4 server from a client machine running Ubuntu Hoary (gnome 2.10). The is rejected. Tried vncviewer using hostname:0 per documentation. So, I am now wondering what else needs to be done to enable remote connects to succeed. I did configure the "remote desktop" settings per discussion in the thread.

I would just use the standard Xvnc and hostname:1, which is working, but when I login via vncviewer I am unable to do any root configuration via gnome. In other distros, I have not had this problem. I run my file server without a monitor, so I need full access to root settings from gnome just like I have when logged in non-root using a monitor and keyboard.
