Subj : Re: how to make vncserver work on red hat 8.0 To : comp.os.linux From : zhe Date : Fri Jul 09 2004 09:24 am Yes, I tried and failed.

I am new in linux, I can not find example. if you can give me an example, that will be very useful. thanks. /zhnewu Sybren Stuvel wrote in message news:... > hzw enlightened us with: > > I use my desktop with win2k and vnc viewer to connect my lab pc with > > red hat linux 8.0, I checked service and found vncserver is on, I > > also ran vncserver once and it asked me to type password, I typed. > > then I tried to connect from my desktop, it always report "Failed to > > connecto to server". what does this mean, how can I make it work. > > thanks. > > Why don't you read the manual page and documentation? > > Sybren .
