Well the box is now running head/kybd/mouseless, at init 3, and I am in looking at a gnome desktop. I can make notes from all the other responses, get on with work at hand and later go back to get a 'better' remote console tool. But one advantage of vnc is how fast I configured it; on an install, I can be hooked to a head/kybd/mouse, quickly get vnc working, move the system, then work on whatever else is needed (including installing a better remote console tool). > > > >> >> I log in on the console as root and >> >> service vncserver start >> >> and it starts with some warning messages about bad display name in >> "add" command, but I do not see where these are logged to copy them >> into this message. >> >> Once I start it from the console, I have trouble using the vnc client >> to access the server. >> >> I really need for the vncserver to start at boot, as I want it to run >> in a place with no monitor or keyboard.... >> > _______________________________________________ > CentOS mailing list > CentOS at centos.org > http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos >
