Yeah, I know it sounds bizarre. I'm running an Ubuntu variant (Qimo) and installed wine and tightvncserver via Synaptic Package Manager. I played with wine for a while, surfed the web a bit for some related pieces, and then decided to load up the server and go check it on the Mac laptop. It just sat there loading. Didn't ask for a password, didn't complain it couldn't find the connection. Just sat there loading. So back to the desktop and my ethernet interface is down. No amount of restarting did anything to change it. I'd like to think that the problem is the OS or some other factor, but considering everything was fine literally right up to the minute I set a vncpasswd and ran tightvncserver, I'm inclined to think tightvncserver is the problem. Any ideas? |

Any ideas? TightVNC Server should not affect Ethernet interfaces in any way. It's a user-level software and it does not ever try to control network interfaces. -- With Best Wishes, Constantin ------------------------------------------------------------- Visit the TightVNC Web site: http://www.tightvnc.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------- Follow TightVNC on Twitter: http://www.twitter.com/tightvnc ------------------------------------------------------------- |
