Installing and Using the Axel-VNCviewer 23
3.3.5 - AIX
Note
: in this chapter we assume that the CDE windows manager is used by the
AIX main console. If not, see the chapter about the installation under Linux with
kdm.
X terminals are handled by
dtlogin
under AIX.
The parameter file of dtlogin is
/usr/dt/config/Xservers
. For each VNC session,
add the following lines (below two Platine VNC sessions are configured):
:1 local@none /usr/local/bin/Xvnc :1 -ac -geometry 800x600 -depth 8 -fp
/usr/lib/X11/fonts/,/usr/lib/X11/fonts/misc/,/usr/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi/,/u
sr/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi/,/usr/lib/X11/fonts/i18n/,/usr/lib/X11/fonts/ibm8
50/,/usr/lib/X11/fonts/TrueType/,/usr/lib/X11/fonts/Type1/ -cc 3 -co
/usr/lib/X11/rgb -rfbwait 120000 -rfbport 5901
:2 local@none /usr/local/bin/Xvnc :2 -ac -geometry 800x600 -depth 8 -fp
/usr/lib/X11/fonts/,/usr/lib/X11/fonts/misc/,/usr/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi/,/u
sr/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi/,/usr/lib/X11/fonts/i18n/,/usr/lib/X11/fonts/ibm8
50/,/usr/lib/X11/fonts/TrueType/,/usr/lib/X11/fonts/Type1/ -cc 3 -co
/usr/lib/X11/rgb -rfbwait 120000 -rfbport 5902
Important
: each line is different from the other by:
- the DISPLAY number (this number is given
twice
),
- the -rfbport option. It is the TCP port number entered through the AX3000
Set-Up (see Chapter 2).
Note
: an example is given in the
xservers.AIX
file. To add this line to the end of
Xservers, invoke the following command (be careful to >>):
# cat /tmp/xservers.AIX >> /usr/dt/config/Xservers
These modifications will take effect after resetting the X server. (Log out from
the main console to reset the X server).
The Axel-VNCviewer will display an X login (like the main console).
