Try connecting to mulo-System-Name:5901. The :1 stands for the port number for the desktop you created. Connect to 5900 + the port number.

i tried but nothing

"unable to resolve host by name"

You added it to "System -> Preferences -> Startup Applications", right?

Then you don't need to use "sudo", because the command is effectively run by the user.

It wouldn't work anyway with "sudo", because it can only be used at the command line, not in a graphical environment, therefore you would have to use "gksudo", then a password query dialog would get displayed. But in your case, the command simply fails.

Greetings.
