I have followed this thread but I remain unable to connect either
locally or remotely when using xinetd. Otherwise, launching Xvnc
directly on the command line allows me to connect without any problem.
I'm testing using Feisty as both client and server. The server shows
these errors when I attempt 'vncviewer <IP>:1':
Jul 5 05:58:28 feisty-D86-2 xinetd[29601]: warning: can't get client address:
Transport endpoint is not connected
Jul 5 05:58:28 feisty-D86-2 xinetd[29602]: warning: can't get client address:
Transport endpoint is not connected
Jul 5 05:58:28 feisty-D86-2 xinetd[29603]: warning: can't get client address:
Transport endpoint is not connected
Jul 5 05:58:28 feisty-D86-2 xinetd[4792]: Deactivating service Xvnc due to
excessive incoming connections. Restarting in 10 seconds.
Jul 5 05:58:38 feisty-D86-2 xinetd[4792]: Activating service Xvnc
The server is running:
vnc-common 3.3.7-13ubuntu2
vnc4server 4.1.1+xorg1.0.2-0ubuntu4
xvnc4viewer 4.1.1+xorg1.0.2-0ubuntu4
The client is running:
xvnc4viewer 4.1.1+xorg1.0.2-0ubuntu4
When Xvnc is run manually I can connect both locally and remotely when
using 'vncviewer <IP>:2'. Here is what is run:
$ ps ax | grep Xvnc
