Hi-
Do you have a VNC server running on the Digital Unix box? I
had managed at one point to get this to work pretty well at
one point (both directions ... a lot more slowly in the pc->x vs
x->pc). There is also a straight up X Server for 95/NT that is
free (

Hope this helps

Yup, it helps a lot...Downloaded & Installed on the PC,now the
connection is fine. I'm also going to lookinto the VNC server for
the DEC as well, I already installed the software so the DEC
could control the PC (once VNC was running on the PC).
Thanx
George

It seems I don't have a VNC x server on the unix side....
I was assuming that there was an X server since
the console is running X. What would I grep for to
see if an X server is running (I know it's not VNC)?
ORIGINAL POST
I wanted to try to setup an X session using my W95 PC.
Running 3.2c currently and VNC viewer for the Xterm on W95.
the way I was read to start the sessions would be
1. telnet from the W95 machine
2. setenv DISPLAY IPaddressofPC:0 (I also tried IP:0.0)
3. Startup the X display application on the PC
Currently our console uses X when used.
I'm currently using VNC veiwer as my X terminal on the PC.
When I point the viewer at the DEC, it tells me that
"failed to connect to server"
Are there any other files that need to be modified or is
there something different I need to do to establish the connection?
What I was thinking is that the console is restricted to being the only
connection allow for an X connection, how do I check this is true or
not true?
Thanx
