Remote VNC for login

slan124 · 05-09-2006, 10:43 AM

Is there any way that I can use remote VNC or a similar program to login remotely to my FC5 machine? This is because I use it as a server during the day and in the mornings when I login I would like to use a windows machine so that I can remove the screen from the server.

Any ideas.

If you look in your control center, under Internet & Network, and then Desktop sharing, you should be able to configure a built in VNC protocol. It works with VNC, and you can use the VNC client to connect to it. Also on a side note, if you wanted to VNC to another computer from your linux box, you could use kRDC as a client.

Hope this helps.

Sadly I do not understand what you mean by the control center as I am really new to linux so dont know my way around yet. I am using gnome desktop enviroment. And I have got the remote desktop working once I have logged in but i am wondering if there is any way to access to machine before I login or is this not possible.
