Hi,

I am using Mepis 2004 and I have set up VNC servers on every computers at home. I recently found this utility which sounds really handy: vncselector. I installed the deb packages, no errors with it. However, when starting the app from console, and in the GUI, I enter the server IP 192.168.1.27:1 as required, it keeps asking me: Display name must be in the form <server:display>. I tried the name of the machine instead of its IP address, it keeps asking that. I normally use xtightvncviewer and that is running totally ok. And, I did verify I had the right IP from my router. Anyone got it working with Mepis, or might have some clue ?

Cheers!

I'm not familiar with Mepis or Vncselector if what you are looking for is an app that provides a history of machines accessed using vnc then the Remote Desktop Connection app does just that, I use it to access all my linux machines the beauty is I don't have to retype the names of the machines I want to access I just select them from a drop down box. :-)
