[H-GEN] remote display of programs

Tony, I have three Windows boxes running VNCserver which I contact via the
Internet using VNC Client on either Windows or Linux boxes and one Linux box
running VNCserver (TightVNC) on my internal network.  I use the latter
because I can use X (which I find fine to use - I'm not a purist) and it
would be handy to be able to use a browser at times.

I have tried http://???.???.???.???:5801 using my browser on all of these
servers and it does not work.  The port is probably incorrect.

Rick

yes - the port number (5801)is correct (I think!), I am running RTH7.2.  You
must be running a vnc session for linux, i.e not just have the service
started.  type vncserver to start a session, then try tyhe http address
again.
