I found that it can be done either/both ways. Right out of the box, using the FC13 tigervnc/tiger-vncserver apps it will operate just like the VNC on Windows where both the local and remote sides can view and control the desktop according to the System->Preferences-Remote Desktop setup utility. The commands I noted in my previous message will give that mode of operation. However, as another option, you can setup the /etc/init.d/vncserver with the appropriate config in /etc/sysconfig/vncservers and /etc/xinetd.d and you can get the type of operation you mentioned too where there's no interaction on the remote desktop at all. Like anything else we do with these boxes I guess there're 25 other ways to do the same thing too. --Mike -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
