Installing Remote Desktop on a Linux VPS With CentOS 5

[chaudhary9]

ok thanks
btw i have to add pass n then exit or before that?

 

[chaudhary9]

i have done all steps
but can any one explain how to connect via tight vnc as it just fails to connect

 

[BizZaro]

make sure the it is running type in SSH vncserver:1 or :2 or :3 whatever you have set to then connect IP:1 via vnc should work if im not mistaken

 

[chaudhary9]

i set the port to 9091
in the end i wrote
vncserver:9091

[root@xxx ~]# vncserver :9091

New 'xxx:9091 (root)' desktop is xxx:9091

Starting applications specified in /root/.vnc/xstartup
Log file is /root/.vnc/xxx:9091.log

n i connected like this
ip(in numbers):9091

try to reboot your vps and starting the vnc again with "vncserver :2"

now after this also restart your iptables and do check your vnc password that you had set

you'll need to type this for the adding the password

vncpasswd

and about the "it didnot asked me for a password" is it on tightvnc ?

i just tried, its working fine, but how to install filezilla and software like idm...?

 

[drlove]

Filezilla should be avaialable on http://filezilla-project.org/download.php?type=client or in a depository.

There are similar down / uploaders for linux though. But none of them as easy to use as IDM.

 

[desibreaker]

well what i want to know is, how to install software such as filezilla on it! i have visited and downloaded
http://filezilla-project.org/download.php?type=client
but i cannot install it(first time using linux)?

 

[vizoomer]

just go to applications , add or remove softwares, search for filezilla and install it ...

thats a way, and another way is via the command line using yum or rpm

 

[desibreaker]

hey vizoomer, can you provide a tuto or a note of using command line using yum or rpm

 

[tut2tut]

how to install web browser ?

[vizoomer]
