UtraVNC client for Fedora 7

almost000 · 07-19-2007, 01:41 PM

I use VNC a lot on friends computer so I boot to windows to start UtraVNC and open the port on my end the client end. I would love to do this in fedora but I don't know how to compile or can't find a RPM for UtraVNC. tell a friend on how to open a port is like pulling teeth and making sure a close it is like puting them back lol. well I just need something that will allow me to be ther one with the open port. so servers can connect to me thank you

You could try regular VNC on the F7 box it is in the repo (or maybe even in default install). I THINK it will have no problem talking with utlraVNC.

As far as I know that does not allow a server to connect to me.

I need to go backwards on the ports. so there server connect to my client

I do use that to conncet to my computers in the house.

Then you need vnc-server. Assuming you want to see the F7 desktop on another computer.

I don't need a server. I have set that up but really never use that.

I ask cause this is one of the last things that I use windows for using UtraVNC. I open my port on my gateway and have them connect to my windows UtraVNC client. and there desktop comes on my computer.

I simply want to do this in Linux.
