vnc client

[solrac]

I have Proxmox VE 1.4 installed on a server.

I have created a VM (VMID=102) with KVM and I want to give access to someone else via vnc.

I don't want to give that person my admin password of Proxmox, so I want to configure Proxmox to support a vnc client and give him access that way.

I have tryed without success:
nc -l -p 5900 -c "qm vncproxy 102 secret"

I tryed a debug with:
root@vs:/ #telnet 172.16.1.3 102
Trying 172.16.1.3...
telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection refused

What I need to do in order to get a vnc client (I use UltraVNC client) connected to the virtual machine 102??

Hi,
if you open the port 5900 then you must also connect to 5900 and not to port 102 - eg. telnet 172.16.1.3 5900

Try following:

echo "5902 stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/qm qm vncproxy 102 secret" >> /etc/inetd.conf
/etc/init.d/openbsd-inetd restart

Then connect to port 5902 with the pw secret.
