| Starlight_ | Can someone please tell me what VNC viewer application to use to connect to the new Ubuntu from Win7 (the Ubuntu Desktop has 3d drivers)?? | 01:11 |
|---|---|---|
| Starlight_ | I'm using I'm using RealVNC, and the picture is not refreshed.. It's just a static.. | 01:12 |
| Starlight_ | Why did I type that twice.. lol :-P | 01:13 |
| philballew | a lot of people use teamviewer these days Starlight_ | 01:14 |
| philballew | its really simple, but its alright for cross platform stuff | 01:15 |
| Starlight_ | Hmm.. Ok! I would love to have VNC working though.. | 01:15 |
| Starlight_ | I'm used to using TeamViewer, but still like the permanent display sharing built into Ubuntu.. | 01:15 |
| Starlight_ | I used to work perfect without 3d display drivers.. | 01:16 |
| Starlight_ | Can TeamViewer be permanent? When I use it on windows, you have to have a application running and it sometimes disconnect, also it seems that TeamViewer connects via it's servers instead of using the host as server.. Is this correct? | 01:19 |
| philballew | Starlight_, you cen get vnc working, I was just saying the popular thing | 01:20 |
| philballew | if you want vnc, you should set up ssh and tunnel vnc through that. | 01:20 |
| philballew | use putty on win7 to connect to ubuntu | 01:21 |
| Starlight_ | Finally some useful information.. Thanks.. | 01:21 |
| Starlight_ | How do I set up ssh | 01:21 |
| philballew | alright, so with ssh you have your client and your server | 01:21 |
| philballew | your gonna want to set up the server on ubuntu | 01:22 |
| philballew | so thats done via sudo apt-get install openssh-server | 01:22 |
| philballew | then that will install. that allows you to ssh in from another computer | 01:22 |
| JoseeAntonioR | But, before that | 01:23 |
| JoseeAntonioR | remember to forward the ports to your PC (port 22 unless you change it), otherwise, it will refuse connections | 01:23 |
| philballew | yes Starlight_ listen to JoseeAntonioR | 01:23 |
| philballew | it should open automaticly, but thats if your on your local network | 01:23 |
| philballew | so if i were you id give ubuntu a static ip | 01:24 |
| JoseeAntonioR | static internal IP | 01:24 |
| JoseeAntonioR | once you get that, forward the ports to that IP | 01:24 |
| philballew | http://askubuntu.com/questions/136671/how-to-login-into-a-ubuntu-machine-from-windows | 01:25 |
| philballew | second answer shows some good stuff | 01:25 |
| philballew | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNC/ | 01:26 |
| Starlight_ | Yeah I know about port forwarding.. Does SSH show a graphical view of the desktop, or just a command line thingy? | 01:26 |
| philballew | ssh is cli, but I think ssh -X is graphical. | 01:27 |
| philballew | JoseeAntonioR, tell me im right ^ | 01:27 |
| JoseeAntonioR | philballew: never heard about ssh -X, always used normal ssh | 01:27 |
| philballew | Starlight_, mind a little reading? | 01:29 |
| philballew | http://martybugs.net/smoothwall/puttyvnc.cgi | 01:29 |
| philballew | but Starlight_ that vnc ubuntu guide should say it | 01:31 |
| philballew | but id use putty | 01:31 |
| Starlight_ | But I need a graphical view.. :-P | 01:32 |
| philballew | Starlight_, yeah! | 01:34 |
| philballew | thats what I am saying | 01:34 |
| philballew | you tunnel tour vnc connection through your ssh connection | 01:34 |
| Starlight_ | Ok | 01:34 |
| Starlight_ | The pagge says this: If you connect to a VNC server, can see the initial desktop, can see the mouse moving around, but the rest of the screen doesn't update, then you probably need to disable desktop effects on the shared desktop | 01:34 |
| Starlight_ | page* | 01:34 |
| philballew | hum, you might have to do that then | 01:35 |
| Starlight_ | But SSH is more secure over the net? | 01:35 |
| philballew | much | 01:35 |
| philballew | much | 01:35 |
| philballew | more | 01:35 |
| Starlight_ | And it doesn't matter waht client I use? | 01:35 |
| Starlight_ | what* | 01:35 |
| philballew | not really | 01:35 |
| Starlight_ | Nice! | 01:36 |
| philballew | I only have seen putty used, but I dont use windows so I dont know much there | 01:36 |
| Starlight_ | But is SSH the display sharing server or is it just a protocoll server? | 01:36 |
| philballew | not sure | 01:37 |
| philballew | ssh stands foe secure shell | 01:37 |
| philballew | its what transmits your shell to you | 01:37 |
| philballew | I have to head out. if you need any more help id ask on here or askubuntu | 01:38 |
| Starlight_ | Ok | 01:38 |
| Starlight_ | I'll look into it later.. It's 4 am here in the morning.. | 01:38 |
| Starlight_ | Thank you for the help! :-) | 01:38 |
| Starlight_ | Very usefull information.. | 01:38 |
| Starlight_ | useful* | 01:38 |
| refuse | :) | 01:39 |
| refuse | <3 | 01:39 |
| Starlight_ | Good night.. | 01:40 |
| refuse | good night :) | 01:40 |
