Please execute the command from the command line.

The command to execute shows in the wizard "this is the command that will execute"

Just open a rxvt console and execute that command. What do you get?

Error when running VNCServer

#109 Post by DeeArr »

Installed latest VNCServer 1.3.9-1.0.pup but am I getting the error:
"Xvnc: error while loading shared libraries: libwrap.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory"

I've looked in the library list posted at http://www.puppylinux.ca/ttuuxxx/Libs/ but tcp wrapper doesn't appear to be listed. I suppose I could get a Slackware version but I'm still a new puppy and would only make a mess.

Regards

Derek

Hi, got the same error, I'm guessing you still haven't fixed the package...

Is there anyway we could get it to work ourselves? =)

I'm using puppy in our company as kioske type machines, only SAPGui and seamonkey available. no right button or access to any configs. the tray menu is pretty much reduced to the applications running.

Worked around it

#112 Post by DeeArr »

No helpful reply to my original post (not b!tchin', I know we all have a life outside of computer.... well, I hear than some have made it) so I used XVNC or was it X11VNC? Worth a try as the protocol is the same. Also I've successfully used VINO, so if you have a gnome desktop you can try that too.
Hope this helps.

Try installing the debian package, using dillo and de debian installer (both are pupGET)

Download the debian package from http://packages.debian.org/etch/libwrap0

Choose the right one for your box.

Tell me if it helps

hi

Iam running puppy 4.00 as a samba file server.

yes it does.

Rox pinboard probably will not work as its writing to the root.....in a similar way that RDP will not show wallpaper.

is there something new to solve the tightvncserver problems?
with x11vnc on toutou, i don't see, with vncviewer on a 2nd pc (under windows), the capture of a webcam plugged on toutou (via xawtv)
on the other way (tightvnc server on the 2nd PC under windows and vncviewer on the linux one), i can see the image of the webcam, it works fine

x11server doesn't work to stream video but tightvncserver doesn't work on toutou. Any solution?

no news...
i tried with realvnc, there is the same problem: it needs xetroot and if i want to get it, i found a source which compilation needs xorg-macro 1.3. And i don't find anything about that...

Server download link

#125 Post by cprivers »

Maybe I am just having a bad computer day, but I have read all 9 pages of this thread and can't find a link to download the server. Every link I hit takes me to the first page of this thread, but I don't see a download link there. Am I missing it?
