OpenSUSE Network :: Ugly Colors When Executing Remote X Programs?

Oct 14, 2010

When I execute Eclipse or Firefox remotely using ssh (on a LAN using ssh -Y user@remote-machine eclipse) they both look strange, the colors are kind of yellow. Logging in to the remote machine using NX or VNC and executing the same apps does not produce the same colors, the apps look fine. Executing the same apps on my local machine does not produce the strange colors either.The remote machine is a SLES 11 and the local is a openSUSE 11.3 (with KDE 4.5.2).This might seem like a small problem but it is annoying to work a whole day like this when the remote apps looks like **** on my otherwise beautiful KDE desktop

Software :: Executing The Command On The Remote Machine

Oct 5, 2010

If I type this manually on the command line, it works

Quote:

ssh -Y user@machine 'firefox &'

I ssh into the remote machine as the named user and pop an instance of firefox from that machine back to my own. If I put the same thing into a shell script though, it fails.

Quote:

#!/bin/bash
ssh -Y user@machine 'firefox &'

I'm just left sitting at a command line on the remote machine. Why does the script fail and how can I make it work?

General :: Executing A Video From Putty (remote Control Vlc)

Jan 5, 2011

I am out of ideas of how to run videos at a remote machine that has a display. I have a debian system with gnome installed and everything is set up but I just don't now how to start the video over anything. I have tried simply to start #vlc video file - but this way it thinks that I want to run it in my bash over at a nother computer. I tried installing vnc but this just ports a new desktop and masically is a terminal which does not give me any control over the display.

OpenSUSE :: 11.4 - Ugly Fonts In Java Applications

Jun 24, 2011

I have installed Netbeans IDE on my Netbook and on my PC (openSUSE 11.4 32 bit and openSUSE 11.4 64 bit). On both has the UI a ugly font. I don't really know how to change it. I already searched the web but I couldn't find anything related. Have a look how it looks like:

Uploaded with ImageShack.us. And then the "original": [URL]. OK, this picture is already 3 years old but I don't think that Oracle would change Netbeans UI font to look creepy. How I can change it to normal?

OpenSUSE Network :: Remote Turn On Machine

Jan 8, 2010

I have had a notebook with an ethernet plugged in cable before, sent a signal through the cable by resetting my router, and it switched my notebook on from cold. My question is, is there a way of doing this using a remote desktop client. Ideally, I would like a machine switched off at home running suse linux/windows, then have a client computer sent the remote request, this in turn activates the machine, which boots and then gives the rmote client control.

OpenSUSE Network :: Setting Up The Remote Administration?

Aug 19, 2010

I can't seem to get Remote Administration (vnc) working for the life of me. I tried the ip4/ip6 fix and every other work around I could find. I simply can't figure things out. I can't say I'm new to Linux but I can say that I am quite new to openSuse and the RPM world in general. My actual error isn't much of an error but that of the vnc window just being a black window that eventually times out.

As of now I access and configure the box vis ssh.I'm using:

openSuse 11.3
Gnome Desktop
Installed from gnome live CD

OpenSUSE Network :: Limit Remote Connection

Oct 1, 2010

How to limiting connection to a remote server.

We have set up a connection in OpenOffice Base to MtSql on a remote server - a very nifty thing.

We have OpenVpn set up - also works very good, in Yast - Security and users - allowed services - External Zone we have Mysql added so we can connect no problem.

My Question is : we can connnect using OpenVpn - through 10.x.x.x. but also via the normal address , 193.x.x.x.

How can I limit this, so people can only connect via the OpenVpn connection?

The clients are all OpenSuse 11.2, the remote server is OpenSuse 11.1.

OpenSUSE Network :: Remote Desktop Abused?

Jan 14, 2011

Just a few moments ago I got notified by the remote desktop application that someone logged in. As I have not given out my remote desktop information to anyone it has to be some sort of attack. I immediately rebooted and I noticed erratic hard drive activity. A few applications with 'tracker' in their name were causing major cpu load so I killed them. Right now my computer is not logged into the Internet so it's probably impossible for any more of my data to leak out.

OpenSUSE Network :: Using Nx Client - See Exactly Same Desktop-taskbar And Open Programs As Left Them In Work Computer

Feb 7, 2011

I am using nx client and I would like to ask your help. Is it possible when I connect from home to my work's computer (using nx client) to see the exactly same desktop-taskbar and open programs as I left them in my work computer.

Imagine that you are at work using your computer. You lock the keyboard and you go home(you didn't turn it off). You go home and you login to work's computer. What I want to see is the same if I was just unlocking works's computer. IS that possible and how?

OpenSUSE Network :: Remote Desktop To SUSE From Windows

Feb 26, 2010

I have been reading up around the internet that although it is possible to use MSTSC.exe under Windows XP to connect back to a Suse machine running XRDP (I believe).I had been working fine with Suse 11.0 until today. I had not made any changes to my local network but now whenever I try to connect in, I am told that I can not start the session as the sesman logon fails!

I tail'ed /var/log/messages but there is nothing written to that log when I try (interestingly enough, I do get the logon prompt that requests username, password and session type - I usually select KDE3 but have tried all options - and get the error after clicking OK).

My questions:-
1. Is XRDP under 11.1 any better (more stable as when it worked, I use to get kicked out a lot under 11.0)
2. What log file should I be trying to tail so I can see what is happening?

I must use Linux as the back end, I don't want to use a hacked copy of XP anymore and don't want to pay �� for a real version when Linux is free and should by now be able to grant me access to my network from a remote location!VNC is not an option as I will be wanting to log on more than one user at the same time.

OpenSUSE Network :: Home Machine Desktop Remote?

Sep 8, 2011

I may have to work in another state for some time, and I'd like to access my home machine desktop remotely, like this: Server - home machine, oS 11.4 64-bit, KDE 4.7, 1920 x 1200 screen (currently set to 24-bit color depth), 1 Mbps upload speed, behind a Dlink DL-524 router I manage.

Client: laptop, oS 11.4 64-bit, KDE 4.6.5, 1280 x 800 screen (also 24-bit color depth), unknown up/down speed - probably huge at work, crappy at apart hotel. I'd like to keep the server resolution, if possible, even if the client's is smaller. I want to be able to star/stop KDE apps in the server, move files between folders, and fix the issues that only happen when my wife is at the keyboard (it's a machine conspiracy, she says ). So I'd need to connect to the server's current session/user (which is myself, i.e., same login/password).

What do you recommend for this? I've read Swerdna's tutorial for 11.2/11.2 (a million seen malcomlewis xrdp 0.6 packages for 11.4 (you rock, malcomlewis!), as well as this thread: RDP into OpenSUSE 11.2, however most seem concerned with rdp between windows and linux boxes. Is there something better/faster/simpler for oS-to-oS RDP or should I use xrdp all the same?

OpenSUSE Network :: Firewall Is Blocking Printing To Remote Printer?

Jan 10, 2010

Printer is connected via USB to server PC running OpenSUSE 11.1 Client PCs are running 11.1, XP, Vista No problem printing from the Windoze machines

Printing is trouble free with the 11.1 client's firewall disabled, but no printer is available with firewall running.

In hopes of diagnosing the problem I figured I'd open everything I could think of until the printer remained available with the firewall running. Then I planned to start removing exceptions one at a time 'til removing one caused the printer to disappear.

I've gone to Yast>Security and Users>Firewall>Allowed Services>External Zone and tried addingSamba Server
NetBIOS server
Samba Client
Samba Server
VNC

OpenSUSE Network :: Boot For Remote Computer Access Involve RDP

Jan 21, 2011

I'm new to the principle of network boot and I was wondering if this is possible. Computer A runs openSUSE. Computer B is an older, slower computer. Computer A and computer B are connected using an Ethernet cable that supports two-way transport. Can I use network boot on computer B to use the OS on computer A remotely while computer A is being used too? Does it involve RDP? Will the remote user experience noticeable lags/delays? What do I need to install on computer A to make this happen?

OpenSUSE Network :: Getting Error Message - Pc Refuses To Allow Remote Connection

Sep 5, 2011

I have local and remote networks that have various printers. I can add any printer (local or remote) to any PC, except for one PC that's refusing to allow remote connection (it used to, but doesn't now!). The problem PC has two printers connected and work OK as a local printer, but both display same problem when attempting to connect from any remote PC via YaST. Using 'Connection Wizard> CUPS Server' connection method requires IP address of remote PC and printer name. But if I correctly select either of the two printers I get an error message:

"PING 192.168.1.149 (192.168.1.149) 56(84) bytes of data.
64 bytes from 192.168.1.149: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=1.12 ms

Both printers are set to 'Accept Print Jobs' and 'Share Printers> Allow remote access' permits all networks to connect. why this PC is requiring the root password?

OpenSUSE Network :: Error When Mounting Remote Cifs/samba Compact Flash?

Jan 3, 2010

Am in the process of upgrading from an ancient OpenSuSE release (7.2) to 11.2. One thing I have been unable to do that worked fine under 7.2 is remotely mounting a compact flash drive from an XP machine. Worked fine for many moons on 7.2:

# mount -t cifs -o rw //xpbox/'cf (H)' /cf0
I get:
mount error(12): Cannot allocate memory
Other cifs mounts of hard disks work fine.

I found a posting that says this means the memory allocation error is from the XP side. It says to fiddle with the XP registry, specifically IRPStackSize. I was not confident this fix would work since there should not be anything significantly more consuming with 11.2 compared to 7.2, and indeed, I got the same error after changing the parameter to 18 and rebooting the XP machine. Any ideas? I have some suspicion that the space and parenthesis in the share name might be fouling up someone. XP forces the share name to this for some reason.
