 |
|
Hi
I am trying to use VNC via inetd so that other people can run sessions on my machine. I can start vncserver manually ( i.e. by typing vncserver, not via inetd) and connect to that with no problem. I've set all the permissions, etc, that I should do, and I get my kdm login on the remote terminal. However, when I log in to kdm on the remote terminal, vnc just dies, saying:

I'm using vnc 4, xorg-x11 6.8.0 r1. What could this be? How can I get the vncserver to output more information? |

Just noticed the following in /var/log/everything/current:
| Code: |
Nov 13 20:17:44 [xinetd] START: vnc-800x600x24 pid=10828 from=192.168.0.101
Nov 13 20:17:45 [kdm_greet] Can't open default user face
Nov 13 20:17:54 [kde(pam_unix)] session opened for user mark by (uid=0)
Nov 13 20:17:54 [PAM-env] Unknown PAM_ITEM: <XAUTHORITY>

No idea what this means, but it seems to be relevant. |

I had a similar problem
I solved it with putting a # in /etc/security/pam_env.conf before DISPLAY and XAUTHORITY
The problem occur with the latest pam.
I found the solution here german forum |

If you comment out DISPLAY, REMOTEHOST and XAUTHORITY, there's nothing left... What's the use?
