| 9 | <p>NOTE: You must start a VNC server running before you can connect to it.</p> |
| 10 | <ul> |
| 11 | <li>Log into ttul using the regular <a href="ssh/float.html">ssh applet</a>, above. |
| 12 | <li>At the prompt, type '<code>vncserver</code>' and remember what display it returns. |
| 13 | If you have never started vncserver before, it will prompt you for a password. You |
| 14 | can enter either the same password as usual or not -- the VNC password is completely |
| 15 | independent of the system password. |
| 16 | <li>Log out |
| 17 | <li>Start the <a href="ssh/vncfloat.html">VNC viewer</a>: enter your username and |
| 18 | password, then the display, then your VNC password. |
| 19 | <li>Hit the 'Connect' button to begin your session. |
| 20 | </ul> |
| 21 | |
| 22 | <p>Note also that VNC is a stateless protocol. When you exit the VNC client, you |
| 23 | don't kill the VNC server. You can connect again later. However, this means that |
| 24 | you will have to manually kill your VNC when you are finished with it.</p> |
| 25 | <ul> |
| 26 | <li>Log into ttul using the regular <a href="ssh/float.html">ssh applet</a>, above. |
| 27 | <li>At the prompt, type '<code>killall Xvnc</code>'. This will kill any VNC servers |
| 28 | you have running, but will not affect other users' servers. |
| 29 | <li>Log out |
| 30 | </ul> |
