I am unable to run remote desktop from my fc 13 server, to my laptop. I have read the remote desktop setup and added port 6000 to firewall, added host name of server to xhost (nick@192.168.1.110). Added the line to /etc/gdm/custom.conf like in fedora guide (DisallowTCP=false). But i still get the error
[nick@pc1 ~]$ xclock
No protocol specified
Error: Can't open display: 192.168.1.101:0
Well this is my first time using redhat 7, the install went fine and webserver, mysql, phpmyadmin are all working......great
The only problem i have is the remote desktop
I have set the password in preferences/remote desktop run command vncpasswd and set password
In services vncserver i get this message......... xsetroot: unable to open display '' Xvnc is stopped and vncserver failed. The error was: xsetroot: unable to open display '' Shutting down VNC server: 1:user1[FAILED]
Starting VNC server: 1:user1 [FAILED]
My vncservers file looks like this
I have tried restarting service using root login and user1
I am trying to set up a remote server on an old desktop that i have and i am running into problems. I have the packet installed but i can not get it to run. When ever I enter /sbin/service sshd start
I get Generating SSH1 RSA host key:[FAILED] and i can not for the life of me figure it out. Running fedora 12
I enabled remote desktop on my Fedora core machine.
SELinux is disabled, as is iptables.
I used UltraVNC to connect and it worked.
However, after I came back overnight, I tried to connect and it failed.
I received a "Failed to connect to server"
Found that the machine had rebooted.
How do I get it the Remote Desktop function to start as a service? I am new to Linux.
I recently did a clean install of Fedora 11 (from Fedora 10). In Fedora 9 and 10 I used a remote font server so that I could launch HP OpenView over a VPN tunnel. The procedure would go something like this:
*connect to VPN
*xset +fp tcp/<hp_ux_server>:7000
*ssh -X user@hp_ux_server
*launch OpenView
OpenView requires the fonts that are installed on the HP-UX server, hence the need for the xset command. Now since the installation of Fedora 11, I cannot get the xset command to work.
xset fp+ tcp/<hp_ux_server>:7000
xset: bad font path element (#23), possible causes are:
Directory does not exist or has wrong permissions
Directory missing fonts.dir
Incorrect font server address or syntax
I have turned off the firewall to make sure it wasn't blocking the request. But to no avail. I have also had two other people with Fedora 11 machines try this, they get the same error. Were there major changes in the X server from Fedora 10 to 11+?
I am Trying to set up my desktop in order to access it from a remote computer using Remote desktop. I have ubuntu 10.10 and am using the included software remote desktop. When I run the programm is says i can only connect locally using the name "local host". I am trying to connect to my desktop from a vnc app on my ipod touch. It asks me for the ip address and the port.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI installed Ubuntu 9.10 on a friends computer when Windows died on it, and though she has had relatively few problems with it, she still occasionally has problems that are really hard to impossible to fix over the phone. She is also not very knowledgeable with computers, so I was trying to guide her through setting up so I could connect to her remotely and try to figure things out, but I cannot get it to work.
I personally don't use Ubuntu on my computer, I use openSUSE and KDE so that does add to the problem, though I have used Ubuntu and Gnome a lot in the past.
I had her go to remote desktop settings and allow connections from other computers and allow other users to control the desktop, and at first I had her require confirmation and a password but it didn't work without it either. When I try to connect, it just hangs for a while then times out. I tried using KRDC and just VNC in the terminal with the same result.
There should be nothing on my side preventing a connection, but I am not positive. I am not very familiar with remote desktop outside of a LAN either. I am just trying to connect using her IP address, I don't know if there is anything else I need to include. Is there maybe some other setting that needs to be changed or maybe her DSL modem/router is blocking me though I don't know why it would, especially since P2P programs work fine.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI've just been tasked with making our company's workstations available from remote locations over our internet connection. While it seems simple in concept, I know there will be several issues I'll have to deal with. What I'd like to know is if anyone has recommendations as far as software to use and methods for securing connections. I'd like to have communications encrypted, which last I heard OpenVNC couldn't do (maybe that's not the case?). Also, I'm not really sure how the interactions between windows clients vs. my linux server and the remote connections should be handled. Would I need a separate instance of say, OpenVNC, on each client that I wanted to be allowed remote access?

What is your remote desktop server of choice?
I require a few things:
- Linux side server that starts up on boot
- Windows and linux side client
- Preferably attachable to a running desktop session, although I can live with a server that starts up X
- Semi-effortless setup on Slackware (with slackbuilds, maybe)
This far I've used x11vnc, but we don't get along all the time. I was interested to try teamviewer, but so far I didn't find information how to use it as standalone server.

I would like to ask the expertise here about this issue which I am having at the moment. I am unable to VNC to my server. I have configured all the necessary steps to enable the vncserver. But there will be an error stating "main: unable to connect to host: No route to host (113". I have checked on my network side which I did not block any what so ever port on the firewalls and the switches. I am able to ping the server but the main problem is that I am unable to remote VNC to that server. I have several servers which I have configured with the same configuration and only that particular 1 server that could not VNC. This is getting frustrating.

Fix I'd forgotten about the Windows server security. Control Panel, System & Security, System Remote Settings, Remote Desktop has 3 radio buttons. I changed from most secure to medium security.
I deleted my windows and now I am alone with ubuntu I use them before and now I can say that they are really awesome, basicly I want 3 things that I am using and then it will be really awesome.
- Remote Desktop Connection In Windows Server.

View 7 Replies View RelatedI am playing around with the idea of being able to use a cloud or instance based service to install Ubuntu 9.10 Server. This will enable me to have remote access via SSH command line.So far, I've installed Ubuntu 9.10 Server + Ubuntu Desktop to a virtual machine. I can access this via SSH and locally via the desktop. However, in the real environment the only access I am going to have initially is via SSH.
I would like to be able to connect using Windows Remote Desktop or VNC (whichever is easier and most importantly - most secure) to the machine.. even though the desktop is on there, I need to somehow configure the remote access all from the command line.I've had a read of various forums and have been trawling support forums for days but can't find a working solution for 9.10 Server or that fits my situation above where I will not have any physical access to the desktop or machine to configure remote desktop. It all has to be done via SSH/command line.
Well I guess the topic says it all. I've recently upgraded to Maverick from Lucid all went smoothly until i restarted and realized that the remote desktop server included stopped functioning all of a sudden. tried other vnc servers with no luck.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI just remotely updated my uncle's Ubuntu 10.10 desktop to 11.04. My uncle has no computer skills, so it is very important that I troubleshoot his problems using VNC. After completing the 11.04 upgrade, I was not able to connect to him via VNC. After some fiddling around I was able to connect by turning off the confirmation option in the Security section. We are now using the password security option. The problem is that my uncle does not have any security against my peering eyes.
I tried reinstalling Vinagre, but that didn't help. Is it possible to get the confirmation option working again somehow?
Is there a download link for Vinagre 3.01 (deb)?
