- VNC Server in Virtual Mode
Unlike its Windows and Mac counterparts, the
vncserver
command creates a new, virtual, VNC desktop—one that is not attached to any physical display hardware. For details of how to make the console X server accessible using VNC, please see Starting VNC Server in User Mode and in Service Mode. To start a new VNC desktop, run the
vncserver
command. If this is the first time you have run the command, it will probably generate secure encryption keys:![Connect Connect](/uploads/1/1/9/5/119550713/533160807.jpg)
The most important lines are the last three:
Running applications in /home/jpw/.vnc/xstartup
is a reminder thatvncserver
automatically starts some applications on your behalf when it creates a new desktop. These typically include a window manager, thevncconfig
configuration applet and a terminal window. You can edit this file to customise the applications that are started when your desktop is created.Log file is /home/user/.vnc/host:1.log
tells you where the log file for this desktop is stored. Diagnostic information from the VNC server and any applications started by thexstartup
script will go to this file.- Most important of all,
New desktop is host:1
tells you the address of your new server. This is what you have to enter intovncviewer
to connect to your new desktop.
Common configuration scenarios
Server configuration settings can be changed by running the
vncconfig
applet, which is started by default on all new VNC desktops. However any changes made this way affect only that desktop, and do not apply to any desktops started subsequently. To make permanent changes to the VNC server's configuration, you can specify them in one of two places:
/etc/vnc/config
for system-wide settings.~/.vnc/config
for per-user settings.
You can also specify settings on the
vncserver
command-line; in this case they will affect only the VNC desktop started by that command. Below are some common configuration scenarios; for full details of the parameters supported, see the Xvnc man page or look at the Expert tab of the
vncconfig
user interface.Allow other users to connect
By default, only the user who started the VNC desktop is allowed to connect. To change this, the AllowedUsers parameter must be configured:
This gives all users permission to connect. For full details of the AllowedUsers parameter, see the Xvnc man page. For a more restrictive example, see below.
Maximum security
For maximum security, you should configure the VNC server to use an encrypted connection. You should also restrict the allowed users, and configure VNC Server to prompt the user to approve new connections:
With the above configuration, only encrypted connections are supported. This could be relaxed by changing the
SecurityTypes
parameter from RA2
to RA2,RA2ne
, ensuring that the password is always encrypted, but allowing viewers to request an unencrypted session. Both the desktop owner and the superuser are granted full access rights and can connect without approval; members of the staff
group can also connect, but must be approved. All users must enter their UNIX password in order to connect. Note that in order for querying of connections to work, you must be running the
vncconfig
applet on the desktop. Note also that since the desktop is not attached to any physical display hardware, there must already be someone connected in order to accept the new incoming connection. You can also restrict access to the server based on IP address using the
Hosts
parameter, for example:Support legacy viewers
To support legacy viewers, you will need to disable encryption and use VNC authentication:
Note that this configuration does not allow encrypted connections (legacy viewers do not support encryptyion). In order to allow both encrypted connections from Enterprise Edition viewers and unencrypted connections from legacy viewers, you would use the following:
Either way, you will also need to run the
vncpasswd
command and enter a password with which to access your VNC desktops:Vnc Viewer For Mac Os

Real Vnc Client For Mac
Hi there,
I've been searching around the posts about VNC, but can´t find any help. So please, if there is any older post that covers this issue, just tell me where to go!;D
So, the thing is, I have a PC with RealVNC running, and I have a Macbook with VNC viewer.
I want to acces my PC from my MAC, but can't get it!
Configuration is default on VNC (PC), port 5900, with password.
My PC is behind a company firewall, so you will obviously think that I'm crazy to attempt this, BUT, I also have VNC on my Blackberry, which CONNECTS without any problem to my PC!! I just enter IP and pssw and voila!
Any ideas??
Thanks,
