VNC to server

sang_froid · 05-26-2010, 02:23 PM

Hi,

In one of my servers, I see following process:

Quote:

oracle 6012 1 0 2009 ? 00:00:05 Xvnc :1 -desktop reportuser:1 (oracle) -httpd
/usr/share/vnc/classes -auth /home/oracle/.Xauthority -geometry 1024x768 -depth 16 -rfbwait 30000 -rfbauth /home
/oracle/.vnc/passwd -test12 5901 -pn
oracle 6016 1 0 2009 ? 00:00:00 vncconfig -iconic
oracle 6017 1 0 2009 ? 00:02:07 xterm -geometry 80x24+10+10 -ls -title reportuser:1 (oracle) Desktop
oracle 6018 1 0 2009 ? 00:00:00 twm
oracle 6020 6017 0 2009 pts/1 00:00:00 -bash
oracle 32526 6020 0 Jan06 pts/1 00:00:17 /usr/lib/mozilla-1.7.13/mozilla-bin -UILocale en-US

Is this someone doing VNC to the server and using mozilla browser ??

yep. well read.

By the way, how do I do VNC to a server ? Do I need any special software for the purpose ?

The server is running something called RacVNC from Dell.

(I am not familiar with doing VNC).

You can see there what software's being used, and clearly you already have it if it's your server.. ??

VNC is evil though, don't use it. For a single user, just use the free versions of nx at nomachine.org much much nicer.

The problem is I don't know what client s/w to use... and what this client is using

I see you're on windows 7, so download the standalone VNC viewer.

acid_kewpie · 05-26-2010, 03:26 PM

any vnc viewer is fine, giyf.
