Hi All,
I've been running vnc-server on RHEL 5 using xinetd for a few years now. Not really ever had to re-visit this until now.
Now when I connect from a vncviewer, e.g. tigervnc, RealVNC, or tightVNC, the connection never establishes. I have attempted to run vncviewer from bash on the affected server; Here is what gets returned:
[root@server ~]# vncviewer localhost:5901

CConn: connected to host localhost port 5901
main: End of stream
[root@server ~]
I have this same configuration working on 60 other servers without a problem, but 2 of the RHEL 5 servers that I brought up to current maintenance now give me the above symptoms. No VNC terminal ever gets displayed.
Any ideas?
