Re: VNC Trouble

Bigfoot, I will pm you a screenshot, everything appears ok to my ability to interpret it. Note that I reinstalled the app hence the install, uninstall, install. I am also sending a screenshot of chicken with how I try to login. If I leave ssh unchecked it just denies me access and if I check ssh and...

Re: VNC Trouble

It is denying me permission to run that log, even as root, I checked permissions and it says root so I don't see why.

VNC Trouble

Maybe I'm just an idiot...

I can't get my VNC running at all. I bought the app and followed the directions, seems simple enough but I can't get it to accept the connection. I am using Chicken on Mac and my server is Fedora from the express disc. Help?

Re: Issues with FiOS OpenVPN

I got the IPSec and from my brief testing it seemed to work. I also tried the customized Windows app in my virtual Windows machine and that seemed to work without a hitch as well.

Re: Issues with FiOS OpenVPN

I have a mac so my testing was done through Tunnelblick. I tried using HDA connect on my work computer but it couldn't establish a connection so I'm assuming something's blocked at work. I can try it through a virtual machine on my MacBook. Would possibly the IPsec setup work differently?

Issues with FiOS OpenVPN

Got my server up and running over the weekend! :D I've already been on the forums asking questions about time machine functionality. And now I have more questions! I connected to my neighbor's wifi to test out the OpenVPN and before I could even get a drive mapped the VPN quit. It continued to drop ...
