VNC Question


I'm on fedora 4, i have vnc working, well sorta. everytime i try to log in, (logging in from a windows box) it will not connect unless i allow the connection on my linux machine; a little window pops up asking if i want to allow/deny the user.

-How do I set vncserver to auto allow incomming users?

TIA!

Just an idea...

Go to Desktop -> Preferences -> Remote Desktop
There is a checkbox called "Ask you for confirmation"

Hope this helps

Just a side note, it was working fine before. You just needed to configure it to work the way you wanted it to. That is a security featured enabled by design.
