76 TCP/IP AX3000 User's Manual
Note: if the default font paths given by the O.S are not needed, use the '-nofp'
option when axvnc is run.
The second screen gives two options:
- Login - the user is presented with a standard Unix/Linux graphical login
followed by a standard desktop..
- Any - the terminal automatically launches a script which launches an
application. (For example ‘rdesktop’, or ‘netscape’ can be run without an
underlying display manager reducing memory and CPU requirements).
AXEL VNC UTILITY (V1.2-0)
-------------------------
This utility allows you to set-up Unix/Linux to run automatically at boot time
Xvnc servers. For each display, a different resolution and a different
number of colors can be chosen.
An Xvnc daemon can be used:
- either to get a graphical login and to access a desktop (KDE, GNOME, etc.)
- or to run automatically an X software (netscape, rdesktop, etc.)
Select the method (<L>ogin or <A>ny software):
a) VNC Terminals with Login
This method offers a standard Linux/Unix "login box" on the VNC terminal. This
logon (username + password) allows the AX3000 user to be identified and
given their respective desktop
The procedure to set up a login session can vary on the display manager used.

Display Manager KDE 2.2
For KDE 2.2, VNC terminals can be declared either through /etc/inittab or the
environment (x)inetd.
There are two main differences:
- inittab gives each terminal its own unique TCP port (5901, 5902, etc.).
- (x)inetd requires only one TCP port for each type of terminal (example:
5950 for all 800x600 and 256-colour terminals).
