RealVNC on W2K3 Guest

[agismaniax]

I have installed and configured realvnc on W2K3 guest, but i could not connect to it from my pc. How to make it work?
I want to manage that guest OS without using built-in management interface.

Hi,

Just use Remote Desktop, it is the easiest way. Go in Computer, right click, properties, remote use tab, check 'Allow user to connect remotely', and 'choose the remote users'.
You have nothing to install...

(but RealVNC should work also, if Firewall allows it...).

UPDATE: after update with the latest e1000 driver from intel, realvnc is working now. thanks for your attention.

Hi,
add something like this in /etc/inetd.conf:

5981 stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/qm qm vncproxy 101 password1
5982 stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/qm qm vncproxy 102 password2

and restart openbsd-inetd. After that you can connect with port 5981 to VM with id 101...
