VNC - VIEWER AND SERVER
VNC allows you to access a PC over the internet
as if you were sitting in front of the keyboard
at the site. The software works with both Linux
and Windows and has two parts: a server (the remote
PC) and a viewer (the PC that dials in to the
server).
The REMOTE PC must have VNC Server running
and must have a password set that you know to
use the viewer utility. DO NOT activate VNC Server
until you are familiar with VNC. Running the Server will
allow other PCs to access your PC when you are
connected to the internet.
Practice using VNC Viewer on your PC, with VNC Server
running on another remote PC.

SAVING YOUR VNC CONFIGURATION:
As with most Pocket Rocket Linux settings,
they are LOST when you shut down. You can set
up a custom script to save your VNC password
and system information. The script TEMPLATE
is available at
www.pocketrocketlinux.com and you simply
set up the password and a few other parameters,
which will load automatically each time you
reboot. Until then, you will have to type
your passwords and the IP address of a remote PC
manually each time you have rebooted.

Using the VNC Viewer:
Type the IP Address of a REMOTE PC
in the box, and if the Remote PC is
running VNC Server, it will ask for
the PASSWORD.
WHAT IP ADDRESS?:
