Please i created a vnc sersion between Redhat linux 5 and windows server 2003. Redhat linux is the vnc server while window server 2003 is the vnc viewer. I can not connect to Redhat despite starting Redhat. I have an error in windows.
VNC Viewer :Error
Unable to connect to host: Connection refused(10061)
There is network connection between both and their hostname can also be resolve.(hosts file contains ipaddress and hostname).
VNC viewer in Linux can access the windows(I installed both VNC server and viewer on windows). Redhat 5 has both VNC viewer and server installed when the OS is installed.
I started up vnc server from services and it is running.
The following below is the command to start and the error log message.
[root@idsl01 ~]# vncserver -geometry 1920x1200
