I have SuSE running on our main server, and use VNC from my windows PC to administer it.

However when I log in via VNC, and try to open any windows, I get messages similar to

"KDEInit could not launch KConsole"

Anybody any idea what I've done wrong and how to correct it.

Dave.

I'm guessing, but it seems that you might have a permission problem somehow... however, since VNC is just literally transporting the keyboard, mouse and screen somewhere else...

You might (temporarily) try to change permissions on the relevant executables to make them world runnable? Its a long shot, but it might help.

Just do

chmod a+rwx executable

as root. I suggest trying kconsole first.
