VNC Multisessions


Dear All,

I have installed VNC server on CentOS 5.5 and I can connect to VNC remotely. But when another person connect to VNC then my session got disconnected. Can anybody let me know how to enable multisessions in VNC?

Any reply will be appreciated.

Hello,

Do you mean you want to open different sessions to separate desktops? Or do you want to share your sessions with others? If you want to share your session, then look in the vnc config file if sharing is enabled.

Kind regards,

Eric

Hello,

Then you'll have to start different vncserver sessions, connected to different desktops, as explained in this webpage.

Kind regards,

Eric
