Fedora :: X11vnc Running A Service When Gdm Starts?
Aug 21, 2011
I want to run 1 instance of x11vnc at boot after gdm starts, itsa remote vnc server that will work without me first loggin in
Im just not sure where or how to start it when computer boots? i can run it on another tty and connect so its all setup but not sure what the "right" was is.
By invoking x11vnc with the -gui tray option the TCL/TK GUI attempts to embed itself onto the system tray, but I encounter the error message "tail: cannot watch /tmp/x11vnc.tray.*", after the first settings dialog approved [clicked OK]. I believe that a package is still missing to be installed and this is not really a software bug. I use the XFCE version shipped along F15, and the GUI can be started but not as a docked-applet.
I am running Server 10. I have a requirement to perform an action before the MySQL service starts, and perform another action after MySQL service stops.
I found the init script for MySQL under /etc/init/mysql.conf. I added my thing to the pre-start script there and works fine.
I am having trouble finding the script that stops the server so I can modify.
Whenever I log into Fedora, an icon (a triangle with an exclamation mark) pops up in the main panel . When I move the mouse over it, the following is displayed. ABRT service not running. I restarted the service from the service configuration window but there was no difference. How do I configure it to run alway
I have a java program where I want to run it every 30 seconds. So what is the best way to run in that form? Is it running as a service or a cron is best? How to do with it
I have been away from Linux for years (about 10), I used to use it for everything and anything...now I am about to do it again but I need help getting back into it haha. Screen is broken on newish laptop, going to use it for firewall, router, file server, etc. Trying to setup remote desktop. I got Fedora 14 setup and installed on it, got SSH up and running where I can remote into it easily. Setting up VNC is starting to be a pain though.
I have Windows 7 on my other machine, with TightVNC and tried Tiger VNC also, disabled all firewall, on the same LAN. The service is running on the RH box, I just cant connect to it...am I missing something simple? It just times out. I followed [URL] thread for the most part.
What is the proper way to make the smb and nmb services start (and keep running) automatically? I have successfully configured samba on my F15 box, but sometimes the other boxes cant see it. I check the status of smb and nmb and smb is running and active, but nmb status is "Running (exited)". If I manually restart nmb then nmb status changes to "Running (active)" and the problem goes away. However I want it to start (and keep running) automatically as it should. I am thinking maybe the problem is the way I set smb and nmb to start automatically.
I used $chkconfig smb on and $chkconfig nmb on
Is this the correct way? if not, what is it? Maybe I need to be more specific about at which runlevels I want the services to start? I have googled, but found about 5 diferent methods to make this services start automatically, some with systemctrl, some editing files, chkconfig, and even the system-config-services app (which seems broken in f15 btw) and don't know which one to use.
I have a java program which I need to run as a service or daemon. What is the most stable method to do it? It will be heavy processing socket programming which will be continously receiving data?
dear, in centos / fedora, I can config to start a permanent vnc session by setting the /etc/sysconfig/vncserver file when the system starts. Is there any similar configuration in opensuse which give me a permanent session?
I've installed MongoDB and I want init to start the database with the --journal flag. I'm quite rusty on how init works, but I know it involves the /etc/init and /etc/rc directories.I've found /lib/init/upstart-job and someone in the chat is suggesting that I just edit that bash script, but I can see it's involved with more than half the system service, so I'm a little hesitant to edit it. In fact, I'm pretty sure if I followed that advice I'd really screw up my system and then the person "helping" me would just stop responding.
I have noticed on my netbook that F14 is running some sort of indexing service in the notification area. What is this, and how do I turn it off? I know what it is doing, but why is this just now important in F14. It is killing the battery life on my netbook.
I am using centos 5.5 x85_64 2.6.18-194.3.1.el5 The server is hanging at start up due to the follwoing error
udevd[746] nss_ldap reconnecting to LDAP server (sleeping 4 seconds) udevd[746] failed to bind to LDAP ser er ldap://192.168.0.100 cant contact ldap
It fails and then tries again, and again, each time increasing the sleep time. This is happening before network sercvices are started so ther is no way it can connect to ldap. anyone know a way to fix this problem?
The desktop search has stopped working in Gnome.I get a message that says 'Search Service not running' with a button that says 'Start Search Service'.When I click the button nothing happens
I'm not really sure what the problem is here, but sshd does seem to start on system boot. tty1 does list "OpenBSD Secure Shell server" at least. Also, # service --status-all; indicates that sshd is running, but if I try and actually ssh into my box, I get a "Connection refused" response.
I am, however able to restart the service manually and everything magically works again. Odd...?
How come on x11vnc, with Fedora 12 PPC/x86/x64, my screen sizes can't be greater than 800 x 600, and they don't update when I change them in Displays. On my Ubuntu installations the x11vnc screen sizes update and can be basically any size selectable in Monitors.
I installed code blocks from .deb files, icon of CB was created but when I click on it to start it, it shows only logo of CB and end, please wehe is error?
If I let my computer sit for about 10 minutes, I lose all the windows I had open (gnome) and i get a message saying I'm running in low graphics mode. I have to restart X in low graphics mode to get it to work. i can't tell the difference, but as an avid writer, I often feel the need to get up and think about whatever I have open in oowriter.
I've installed 10.10 on my Asus 1015PE and when I went to look at the partition table I couldn't get Gparted to stay open. When I click on it, it opens the window, says that it is searching then scanning, then the window and program closes. The window is up for maybe 3 seconds tops.
I've got two other ubuntu netbook versions running on the same machine and gparted works fine on those installs. I've tried completely removing gparted and reinstalling, I've rebooted, I've tried calling it from the terminal, but always the same: it opens, starts to scan and closes.
I just installed Moonlight but except for the clock that starts running, buffering and connecting to the video server nothing else works.The screen stays grey and there is no sound. I thought it might work when I install Java applet, but also that doesn't fix.
My question is how to check whether this script is running or not (It can be checked every 10 minutes) and how to make it as a service. (I don't have root access to put this in rc.local file or somewhere else).
I wish to start TeamViewer as a service in Ubuntu. In Windows I can load it as a service and remotely enter password at login screen. Is it possible with Ubuntu?
I need a script that is able to check if a service is running or not. It has to do it automatic since it is for restarting a GameServer.
I tried to make one myself, but since the .x86 file has the same name for every server, it is hard to know a way to check if the server is running with the right process.
Is there a way to make a script which is able to check if a service is running (service has same name, but using other ports)
this is an error in java not knowing its classpath. IANAP, and could use some help in resolving this.I've followed the instructions available at various sites, and the installation went fine.When I start the service I get the following in the wrapper.log:
Code: root@twin:/etc# service adito console Running Adito...
I know I have to count how many instances are running: ps x | grep apache2 | wc -l result if it's running: 2, or else: 1 I also know there is a command called test that I could use to perform the verification, but I don't know how to use test with wc
I have recently ported from Windows to Linux (xubuntu) I am a developer, i installed everything i need, LAMP. Now in Windows i used to turn off all unnecessary Services, i don't need the Apache or MySQL service running all the time. I used: net start mysql
Whenever i needed it. How do i do the same in Linux: 1. Disabling not-needed daemons from auto-starting? 2. Starting them only when i need them?
