General :: Can't Use TightVNC To Connect To SuSE From Windows?
May 5, 2010
Have TightVNC 1.3.10.0 installed on WXP. Can connect to Ubuntu 9.10 system running natively on its own system without problem. Have OpenSuSE 11.2 running in a VMWare Server VM on a W2K3 server on yet another system. SuSE VM is web-aware, I can get out to the web and regularly receive SuSe updates. SuSE VM has its own IP address which it got from DHCP. I can ping the SuSE VM in the W2K3 server from my WXP machine. W2K3 firewall is disabled.When I point TightVNC at the SuSE VM, it says it can't connect. When I open a browser page to the SuSE VM at port 5801, I connect, and can log in and work as usual. When I click on the options tab at the top of the screen, a window opens titled "TightVNC Options".
I'm having an issue connecting to my media PC running windows 7 x64 using the remote desktop viewer built into my ubuntu 10.04 x64 install. I can connect to the windows machine using chicken of the VNC on my mac with zero hassle. Unfortunately when I try and use remote desktop viewer on my ubuntu destkop I get an immediate:Code:Connection to host 192.168.1.103 was closed.I've tried connecting to 192.168.1.103::5900 as well, with the same result. Again I can connect using my mac (using chicken of the vnc), just not remote desktop viewer =( Any thoughts on why this might be?Remote desktop viewer on my desktop has successfully connected to other Ubuntu & OSx machines..
I have installed opensuse 11.2 without graphical interface. Configured whole server with ftp and hosting. This suses-server is in LAN with my home computer and without keyboard, monitor and mouse. What to use to connect from my Windows platform to terminal of suse so I don't need extra hardware?
With SUSE-9 I used pptpconfig to connect to a Windows VPN Server.With openSUSE-11.3 I created a VPN Network Connection,however I have no idea how to start the network connection.
I am new to linux and I purchased a Linux Dedicated server, however my experience for Linux is 0 and my pc's at home are Windows 7. I am trying to install TightVNC server on my linux dedicated server but I can currently only access it through Putty as far as I know.
Is there a way to install TightVNC through Putty from my Windows 7 computer? Because I have no clue how else to put TightVNC on my dedicated server.
When either of the proprietary Nvidia drivers are enabled, viewing the desktop using a remote client (Windows TightVNC) does not work. The initial remote screen display is ok, but no updates to the remote display occur. Reverting back to the non-proprietary driver solves the problem. I have also tried using a 10.04 Live CD and used Remote Desktop Viewer on the client machine, and it behaves the same way.
I've got several language multimedia CD-Rom's, made for Windows 95/98/98 SE and 2000, that I'm using by means of my daughter's old PC (Win 98 SE O.S.). However I noticed, also, that you can perfectly use them even with Windows Vista. What I'd like to know is if you can use them even with Suse/Novell and (why not?) OpenSuse Linux.
i have windows 7 installed on my laptop and working fine..i want to install Open Suse 11.2 along side. I tried installing by booting with DVD for Suse. But it gave me warning to delete the windows partition.I would like to keep the partition intact with windows 7 and install Suse. Any suggestions ?I can create partition on my laptop but i do not want to modify the current windows structure.
Recently my computer was infected by several viruses and my brother cleaned it up and installed SuSe for me. He also put windows xp back on my system for our children. I am having a terrible time installing our Dell 924 printer. I have it installed for windows, but cannot get it to print for my Linux system. What am I doing wrong? Can anyone give me some direction?
i've had a windows xp pro where the printer epson aculaser c900 is shared. When i wan't to print from linux. When i look on dhe xp pc the files are in the print qeue. But the printer give no print out.
I Would like to dual boot my computer for it to have suse linux and windows xp professional I have an 80 GB hard drive partitioned in NTFS is it possible to dual boot and what software do you suggest to partition the hard drive.
I am trying to set up a home network but I am having a slight problem. The network is reported as being open and active but when I click on the Windows network icon a dialogue reports that " unable to mount location, failed to retrieve share list from server. What have I missed. I have tried other distros such as PClinuxOS and that connected automatically so there is no physical problems with my wired network. My Workgroup is MSHOME and my host is Home1.
I have a computer with 2*Quad cores, 48GB RAM and 2* 1TB harddisks. There is a 100 GB partition for Windows 7 on one of the harddisks (sda). We want to use the computer for chemical computations, by running the chemical software on SuSE (SLES 10). I used GParted to shrink the Windows partition. I tried to install SuSE, but just before it asks for the root password, it restarts the computer, and after the restart the keyboard and mouse didn't work. (I had the keyboard, mouse and screen connected to a KVM switch, because I have more than one computer in the office). I tried to plug the mouse & keyboard directly into the computer, but nothing worked.
I was afraid of restarting the computer (since the installation wasn't completed) but I reasoned that perhaps then the computer would automatically pick up the mouse and keyboard. It did. However, earlier in the installation I chose to install KDE and not Gnome, but when everything was finished I found that I had Gnome, and not KDE. How do I change to KDE? I guess there should be a way using YAST or something, but I'm not sure. At present, one of the harddisks has the Windows partition, and then the SWAP (primary), and then the rest of the Linux part (primary). I would like to partition the Linux part like this......
I'm pretty new to using Linux and I installed SUSE 11.3 on Sun Virtual Box to play around with it. I am trying to mount one of my Windows shares to my SUSE system and I'm getting an error "Mount error(13): Permission denied". I have made sure my Windows permissions are open, in fact I used a test share and added everyone and gave full control. Below is the command I tried to use to mount it.
mount -t cifs -o username=Nick //computername/share /mnt/temp
I pre-created the temp folder under mnt and I tried both my PC name and my ip address in the above command with the same error each time. I also tried using my pc name in my username string as well "username=pcname/Nick" and that did not work either. Can someone advise me why this error is occuring?
I have a SUSE 10 SP 2 server that needs to get added to a Windows Active Directory domain and registered in DNS. Samba is 3.0.28-0.5. I tried to join the domain with the following command:
When I try to connect to my SUSE server from other one this appears: Remote host identification has changed. I deleted entry in know_hosts but it still working wrong, showing me this message. What could be the cause of this problem??
I'm new to linux, and I'm just trying to learn OpenSUSE. I just installed it and I have a few quick questions. #1 I accidentally installed the "OpenSUSE Installer (LOCAL)" on Windows 7, so now I get the option to choose windows or the installer at the windows boot screen. I ended up just installing OpenSUSE on a completely different HD (my original intent) from a burned DVD, so this installer is useless and I don't know how to remove it.
#2 After installing opensuse on my second HD, the boot screen is now SUSE's instead of Windows, and I can choose suse's desktop, the suse failsafe, windows 1, and windows 2. Windows 1 brings me to the windows boot screen with the choice i mentioned above (windows or the local installer i accidentally installed), and windows 2 i assume is my second windows partition which is just my SWAP file, and selecting it does nothing (which would make sense if thats all it is).
My question here is how do I make it so my default boot screen is the windows one with an option between windows 7 or suse? Or would this require reinstalling the system? If it does and its simple enough to explain please do I wouldnt mind removing it and reinstalling at this point, I would just wipe my whole second HD from windows.
#3 I have a netgear adapter. unfortunitly i'm not at home right now and I don't remember the model, so I'll provide that this evening if necessary. What I do know is they do not have a driver for linux. I've found ACX100, but I didn't find my netgear adapter listed on their website. I also found NDISWrapper, but thats for XP and I still don't know if that'll work. I will of course try both unless someone here has a better solution. If anyone knows anything that will work on any netgear adapter for linux please let me know, if not then I'll provide the model later on.
As we know, we can connect to a linux server on a linux or Unix system by typing "ssh username@domain.name.whatever". But it seems like we cannot do things like this by Windows Command Prompt. I mean we cannot connect to a Linux shell by a simple command right? Just want to make sure if this is impossible without installing extra tools(like sftpc or anything).
I updated one of my windows boxes from XP to Windows 7 and now my Ubuntu boxes cannot connect to the shares on that windows box! I have done a lot of research on this and anything I try does not work.
Is there a (preferably free) X server software package that I can use to connect to Linux box from Windows? I've tried exceed from hummingbird, but it's expensive, are there free alternatives with the same quality?
I am writing an application that has a web service client on a Windows PC that needs to call a web service on a Linux server. In order to create the client, I need to be able to programmatically read the WSDL on the server and use it to create the client. I'm using the web tools in MyEclipse to build the client.
The Linux server is running Red Hat, I believe, with ssh enabled. I can connect from Linux to Windows with no problem, but I can't reach the Linux box from Windows. I get one of three errors when I try: no path to host, connection reset, or unknown error number, depending on the port I use. I've googled for an answer, but haven't found anything yet.Is there some way to add the Windows IP to a permission file on the Linux machine so it will be recognized when it queries for the WSDL?
I am setting up samba on my CentOS server for the first time. I am using webmin to configure samba. Here is the smb.conf
Code:
[global] netbios name = KISKA cups options = raw load printers = yes server string =
[code]...
I can see the domain name "KISKA" in the "network" tab of windows explorer, however when I click on it I get this error: Windows cannot access \KISKA check the spelling of the name. otherwise there might be a problem with your network. Under the details of this error I get this: "The network path was not found" Also I have stopped iptables so it cant be firewalled
9.10 Ubuntu (Karmic) I could never connect from home using rdesktop, grdp, krdc, etc to the Windows Server 2003 R2 at the office: "Connection reset by peer" or the client simply remains "connecting to...", depending on the client used. Some days I work from home as if I'm sitting in front of my PC at the office.
So I used to boot in Win XP to run mstsc. But the XP partition doesn't boot anymore, no way to fix it, so I need to try the Ubuntu rdp clients.
I even installed a Win XP in a VM (VirtualBox), but now mstsc doesn't connect, it ends due to timeout (as if the Windos Server "knows" I'm not a windows family client)
I have a laptop at home and a Linux server running Oracle Enterprise linux. Both can connect to the internet thru a router. How can I ping the server from the laptop? I want to access some web server page on the server, from the laptop.
I am trying to set up my computer as a server for things like minecraft and ventrilo. I cannot get anybody (myself included) to connect to the servers I set up. I think it has to do with my ports not forwarding properly, or the computer using ipv6 instead of ipv4 for some strange reason. I say this because I KNOW I set up the port forwarding in my routers setting correctly, but when i browse to a port checking tool, it says they are not. How can I get people to connect to my servers, which seem to be running and functioning?
