Sorry Ed. I have tried and removed so many different combinations that
I am now double thinking a simple instruction.
My latest attempt:
/etc/sysconfig/vncservers
VNCSERVERS="1:bill"
VNCSERVERARGS[1]="-geometry 800x600 -nolisten tcp -localhost"
]# service vncserver restart
Shutting down VNC server: [ OK ]
Starting VNC server: 1:bill [FAILED]
( I have tried 0 and 2, 0 gives me
]# service vncserver start
Starting VNC server: 0:root A VNC server is already running as :0
[FAILED]
]# vncviewer (I get a screen asking for VNC server but no answer
satisfies. Tried name/address (192.168.1.7) of other machine and get --
main: unable connect to socket: No route to host (113))
