I don't understand all of this but it looks like it is listening on
port 5901 from the 4th line.
What next?
ok, the above output shows that the server is really running and
listening for incoming connections.
Now you should be able to contact the machine like other have told you
with the command:
vncviewer <ip_of_server>:1
I have been using a 3rd parth client (Chicken of the VNC) to connect.
You will see in another message to this email (today) list that I
successfully connected when I temporarily disabled the firewall.
If this don't work, please test the functionality local on the linux
machine by trying to connect to itself. Open a terminal window and type:
vncviewer localhost:1
This is what I get when I run that command. Apparantly it doesn't work.
[jlconlin@localhost jlconlin]$ vncviewer localhost:1
