Remote Desktop (VNC)...
I have Linux Mint 7 and wondering how come on my Windows it won't connect to my Linux. I am using the program RealVNC Viewer. So I was seeing if someone can give me a step by step of how to do that? I am new so thank you for your help.

Not for Mint http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/VNC-Server
|
Okay, What is a good OS for my windows can connect to my Linux?
|
Sorry - the link I gave you was for setting it up under CentOS. I meant the link was not a howto for Mint, not that you couldn't use Mint.
I would expect that the howto should be pretty much straight applicable to Mint. Sorry about the confusion |
So if I use that link I can get my VNC working in Mint 7?
|
You could try it for a start.
|
The "Yum" command doesn't work for me.
|
No, you would use apt-get or similar.
|
Sorry I am really new to this and I can't get either one to do anything.
|
|
I guess kind of helped, but still can't connect to my Linux through Windows.
|
You're going to have to give way more information than that if you want any help.

Okay lets see. I am using Linux Mint 7. I want to have my Windows Vista connect to my Linux via VNC. On my Windows Vista I have RealVNC installed. When I try to connect using RealVNC I get an error saying can't connect. I have opened all the ports I need on my 2WIRE router. I want to control my Linux on my Windows. When I use the Terminal it says it can't install VCN-Server. I believe I need that program in order to connect from my Windows to my Linux. I can't for some reason. I want to know how I can.

Do you have vino installed (as per the 2nd link I gave you)?
|
I believe so. I have a Remote Desktop program that I am guessing is it.
