Connecting with VNC

Postby thomasps » Tue Dec 27, 2011 2:54 pm

I just installed the VNC app and noticed I have to use the host:display format (hda:4)
I often connect via an iPhone app (PocketCloud) and it appears it does not allow this format.

Is there a way around this or an app that allows host:display format?

i use xrdp. it supports microsoft RDC protocol that is significanlty better than vnc. i also found vnc server a pain to config on fedora.

You might want to check with what your app is expecting for the format. If it is asking for a port number instead of a display, you could try 590#, where # is the display number.

Thanks! I'm going to give it a try.
