Broken VNC? - Navrax - 2006-03-15
I'll start ssh
/etc/init.d/sshd start
Then, from my winbox I'll start PuTTY, load my vnc settings ( The forwarded ports, etc) then I'll open and log into my box via ssh. Yay! BUT, when I open vncviewer on windows, and try and open localhost:1 it just hangs! Normally I would get dialogue to input a password to vnc! :(
