Suse 9. HTTP VNC service

[p p. <si...@be...>]

I have setup TVNC as a service using XVNC and can connect to the machine
using both XPpro and RH9 via vncviewer.

I am trying to establish the same function with the java applet using the
provided configuration:

FROM \etc\services:

Vnchttpd10        5910/tcp            # vnc htttp server (capitalization is
from WORD, not the file contents)

FROM \etc\xinetd.d\vnc

Service vnchtttpd10
{
            type                  = UNLISTED
            port                   = 5810
            socket_type      = stream
protocol             = tcp
wait                  = no
user                  = nobody
server                = /usr/x11R6/bin/vnc_inetd_httpd
server_args        = 1024 768 5910
disable              = no
}


When I HTTP://192.168.0.98:5910 <http://192.168.0.98:5910/>

I get “page cannot be displayed”

When I HTTP://192.168.0.98:5810 <http://192.168.0.98:5810/>

I get “REMOTE DESKTOP” VNC authentication, but no matter what password I
enter, I get “Network error: could not connect to server: 192.168.0.98:5810”

YAST (though usually brain-dead) shows the (x)inetd service VNCHTTPD10 as
active, but I don’t see how I’m even getting the VNC authentication screen
from this config (the PORT argument in the service description above is
information-only AFAIK…) since I’m pointing to 5810. This has to be coming
from somewhere else????

Also,

Netstat | grep vnc

Only shows the other (active) vnc connection via vncviewer….even when I’m
sitting on the “Remote Desktop” VNC authentication screen…


Any help would be welcome.
