TightVNC

An easy way to remotely run the xwindows desktop from a ms-windows system. Download and install the package: 

wget http://downloads.sourceforge.net/vnc-tight/tightvnc-server-1.3.9-1.i386.rpm
rpm -ih tightvnc-server-1.3.9-1.i386.rpm

The only documentation included with the RPM worth reading is at: 

/usr/share/doc/tightvnc-server-1.3.9/README

The binary executables: 

/usr/bin/vncviewer
/usr/bin/vncserver
/usr/bin/vncpasswd
/usr/bin/vncconnect
/usr/bin/Xvnc

To configure the package as a service: The RPM places the InitV startup scripts in the correct Redhat places. 

/etc/rc.d/init.d/vncserver
/etc/rc.d/rc0.d/K35vncserver
/etc/rc.d/rc1.d/K35vncserver
/etc/rc.d/rc2.d/K35vncserver
/etc/rc.d/rc3.d/K35vncserver
/etc/rc.d/rc4.d/K35vncserver
/etc/rc.d/rc5.d/K35vncserver
/etc/rc.d/rc6.d/K35vncserver

To EDIT the TightVNC configuration file: 

vi /etc/sysconfig/vncservers
  • TightVNC does not start due to font path issues.
