Re: Controlling PC-anywhere WITH VCN tight?

I have done something quite similar to your scenario, starting pcAW on the 
host to connet to yet another remote.  My client was XP and the host 2000, 
but I don't know that this makes any difference.

My only concern would be the Win98 machine.  Does it have the power to do 
all of this?  Is pcAW running in file-transfer mode?  Or, if they are tryng 
to run pcAW in graphical mode, that might bring up issues, including 
graphical performance on your VNC client.

I have a client who has
(A) A P4 computer upstairs running XP-Home
(B) an older PIII downstairs running Win98. Under the Win98 it's running an 
old complex DOS application that's incompatible with XP AND the mission 
critical application on IT is PC-anywhere, which dials out on a private dial 
connection (NOT using a Windows dialup connection) and polls some computers 
for sales data. It's a complex convoluted legacy application, but it works, 
and no one, including myself, dares mess with it.

Now he wants to be able to on some occasions control/run that downstairs 
polling computer from his upstairs XP keyboard.

I should add a few more details:

I can connect to other vnc servers (both tight and real) from the same 
machine, so vncviewer seems fine.

When I connect to this RH9 host I also don't have *any* keyboard focus. 
If I start an xterm from a different login shell onto the same X 
display, it appears but I get no keyboard focus onto it.

I've got a RedHat 7.3 machine running the same version of tightvnc and I 
can connect to this server *just fine*.

I'm running a normal X session on this (RH9) machine when trying to 
connect. Should I try stopping my "normal" X session?

Any ideas?

TIA

Logon as a particular user

Hi,

I have a requirement and I wonder if TightVNC can help me. I want to log
onto a remote Windows PC using a particular account. Can I do that with
TightVNC?

Hi Kevin,

VNC will put you at the console as if you'd just sat down.  You can log in
as anybody you want from there.

RE: Logon as a particular user

d'oh

Of course I'm not thinking straight. I can see the console that I'm
currently logged in as - I'd need to log out and log back in as the user
I want!

Thanks

Oneway but not the other.....

Dear Everyone,

I am running Jamd-Linux (ie:Red Hat 9), I've got tightvnc server and 
viewer installed in this linux machine, as well as my other two XP 
Pro/Home machines.

The problem is that I can do as I wish from my linux machine, I can get 
on both XP machines through TightVNC (Home Network), I can NOT however 
use my XP machines to get on my Linux machine (Host not found)(Home 
Network).

I'm 90% new to linux (been useing it for about 4 months), and really 
haven't a clue how I started vncserver (although Xvnc says it's already 
running when I type it in cli).

Is their a GUI for TightVNC on Linux like their is for windows? If not, 
is their some good how-to data I can turn to for this? I've looked 
around the RealVNC, TightVNC, AT&T's VNC info and what ever else I could 
find on the internet, but nothing really covers how to step by step 
what's going to be needed to set up the linux side of the vnc server.

Thanks for anyhelp,
Justin

There is no default server on Linux. Under Windows, the server runs as a 
service whenever Windows is running. So you can connect from Linux to XP 
no problems.
