Here's my xstartup (it's a Red Hat ES 3.0 but should be similar on Fedora) that starts the default gnome-session:My xstartup looked nearly the same. I uncommented the exec... line earlier and just now uncommented the unset... line. After rebooting (and restarting vncserver) and closing the firewall it came up just the way I expected it to. Now, how can I configure the firewall to accept vnc connections without turning it off? And how can I get vncserver to start on boot?
--- #!/bin/sh
# Uncomment the following two lines for normal desktop: unset SESSION_MANAGER exec /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc
[ -r $HOME/.Xresources ] && xrdb $HOME/.Xresources xsetroot -solid grey vncconfig -iconic & xterm -geometry 80x24+10+10 -ls -title "$VNCDESKTOP Desktop" & twm & ---
I thought I heard once that I don't need a VNC client to do this as X11 will do it if it is configured correctly. Is this a correct statement or am I required to use a client?
Thanks, Jeremy
