Installing and Using the Axel-VNCviewer 45
b) inetd Daemon
If the directory
/etc/inet.d
exists, create the file
/etc/inet.d/vnc
and add the
following lines. If
/etc/inet.d
does not exist add these lines at the end of
/etc/inetd.conf
:
vnc-800x600-8 stream tcp nowait nobody /usr/local/bin/Xvnc Xvnc -inetd -query
localhost -once -geometry 800x600 -depth 8 -cc 3
vnc-1024x768-8 stream tcp nowait nobody /usr/local/bin/Xvnc Xvnc -inetd -query
localhost -once -geometry 1024x768 -depth 8 -cc 3
These modifications will take effect after sending the signal HUP to inetd (
kill
-HUP ...
).
6.6.2 - Checking Access Rights
The access rights are listed in the file Xaccess.
Check if VNC terminals are allowed to be connected. For example, comment
out this line:
* #any host can get a login window
If this file is modified, reboot Linux.
6.6.3 - Enabling XDMCP
First, XDMCP must be enabled. This is done through the file
kdmrc
. The
location of kdmrc depends on the operating system. Possible locations are
/etc/kde/kdm, /usr/share/config/kdm or /opt/kde2/share/config/kdm.
This file is divided into sections. In the xdmcp section, set the 'Enable'
parameter to 'true':
[xdmcp]
Enable=true
This modification will take effect after rebooting Linux.
