Hi,

i'm trying to get a gui remote access to my slackware server.
I installed nxserver on slackware an it runs. Also i installed
the nxserver client on my windows laptop.
I can connect with putty from windows laptop to the slackware machine.

When i try to connect with nxserver i got a message something like this: "nx service not available or disabled".

As i am not a Linux Pro i hope someone here can help me.
I g**gled a lot but found nothing about a gui remote access from windows to slackware fluxbox.

what i NOT want is a connection like one get with xwing. i just wanna see by remote what's going on, on the slackware machine screen.
if the solution with nxserver doesn't work i also can try vnc or anything else which just works.

hope someone can help me, if you need further informations i will supply with but at the moment i don't know what exactly someone would need to help me out.

thx in advance!

Try this fella, you'll have much more luck: http://www.karlrunge.com/x11vnc/

I'll second x11vnc - it's available on slackbuilds.org

cheers,

Guys, thx for this real fast answers... !

i will try tomorrow this solution and report it to you, or ask other questions

I also had problems getting NX Client to talk directly to a remote Linux box running NX Server. If you're still interested in using NX, I did the following here to get NX Client working:

- Set up putty on the windows box to create a tunnel from 127.0.0.1:22 on the windows box back to the remote Linux box;
- Created the NX Client entries to connect to 127.0.0.1 on port 22 instead of connecting directly to my remote Linux box.

hi guys,

i downloade the application yesterday, 10min later i had a remote access via vnc client.
what can i say: fast answer, right answer!
thanks a lot!

this forum here works...

the nx solution i maybe will try someday at the moment i satisfied with this
