Hi all,

I have another workstation identical to the one where i am having trouble in logging into GUI. (both have same OS fedora core 10)
I am posting few commands from both to see if that helps

Below are from the one where i have problem

Code:

 
[root@console-0124 ~]# ps -ef|grep X
root      3909  3870  0 Jun06 tty7     00:00:32 /usr/bin/X :0 -auth /var/lib/xdm/authdir/authfiles/A:0-4Mjszr
vct      11530 11311  0 Jun07 ?        00:00:00 /usr/bin/ssh-agent /etc/X11/xinit/Xclients
root     19516 19381  0 14:48 pts/0    00:00:00 grep X
[root@console-0124 ~]# ps -ef|grep Xorg
root     19518 19381  0 14:48 pts/0    00:00:00 grep Xorg
[root@console-0124 ~]# ps -ef|grep bonobo
root     19520 19381  0 14:49 pts/0    00:00:00 grep bonobo
[root@console-0124 ~]# ps -ef|grep nauti
root     19522 19381  0 14:49 pts/0    00:00:00 grep nauti
[root@console-0124 ~]#

Below are from the workstation which is working fine

Code:

 
[root@console-recon-0124 ~]# ps -ef|grep X

root     23064 22801  0 13:51 pts/0    00:00:00 grep bonobo
[root@console-recon-0124 ~]# ps -ef|grep nauti

root     23066 22801  0 13:52 pts/0    00:00:00 grep nauti
[root@console-recon-0124 ~]#

Please advice me on how to troubleshoot this problem.
Thanks in advance!

vncpasswd

vncpasswd(1)						     Virtual Network Computing						      vncpasswd(1)

NAME

       vncpasswd - change a VNC password

SYNOPSIS

       vncpasswd [passwd-file]

DESCRIPTION

       vncpasswd  allows  you  to set the password used to access VNC desktops.  It stores an obfuscated version of the password in the given file
       (default $HOME/.vnc/passwd).  The vncserver script runs vncpasswd the first time you start a VNC desktop, and invokes Xvnc with the  appro-
       priate -rfbauth option.	vncviewer can also be given a password file to use via the -passwd option.

       The  password  must be at least six characters long, and only the first eight characters are significant.  Note that the stored password is
       not encrypted securely - anyone who has access to this file can trivially find out the plaintext password, so vncpasswd always sets  appro-
       priate  permissions  (read and write only by the owner).  However, when accessing a VNC desktop a challenge-response mechanism is used over
       the wire making it hard for anyone to crack the password simply by snooping on the network.

FILES

       $HOME/.vnc/passwd
	      Default location of the VNC password file.
