Hi! I did some searching around but I am unable to get remote deskstop to work on my 9.10 install. I am running tightvnc viewer on my 64 bit windows 7 box. The idea is to let me control the linux box remotely from my pc. I can ping the box from the command console in windows 7. I found a thread about disabling the video appearance stuff so I did that also. I have set it up according to the ubuntu docs.
In remote desktop I enable remote control plus added a password for security however, when I bring up vnc on my pc I keep getting connection failed.
The two computer are on the same network behind my router. I believe that is about as simple as it gets.
Any help would be appreciated :)
