7.2.5 Configuring the VNC server<br />

Often applications require a graphical environment. <strong>The</strong> Virtual Network Computing (VNC)<br />

server allows <strong>for</strong> a graphical environment to be set up easily by starting the vncserver<br />

service. To do so, per<strong>for</strong>m the following steps:<br />

► RHEL 6 configures the VNC server using the /etc/sysconfig/vncservers configuration<br />

file. Add a line at the bottom of this file to specify the VNC user:<br />

# yum -y install tigervnc-server openmotif xterm xsetroot xorg-x11-xauth<br />

...<br />

► Edit the vncservers file and add one line at the bottom:<br />

# cd /etc/sysconfig<br />

# vi vncservers<br />

...<br />

# VNCSERVERS="2:myusername"<br />

# VNCSERVERARGS[2]="-geometry 800x600 -nolisten tcp -localhost"<br />

VNCSERVERS="1:root"<br />

► Set a VNC password with the vncpasswd command. This password will be needed to<br />

connect to the VNC server:<br />

# vncpasswd<br />

Password: lnx4vm<br />

Verify: lnx4vm<br />

► Stop the firewall:<br />

# service iptables stop<br />

iptables: Flushing firewall rules: [ OK ]<br />

iptables: Setting chains to policy ACCEPT: filter [ OK ]<br />

iptables: Unloading modules: [ OK ]<br />

► Start the VNC server. This will create some initial configuration files under the<br />

/root/.vnc/ directory:<br />

# service vncserver start<br />

Starting VNC server: 1:root xauth: creating new authority file /root/.Xauthority<br />

New 'gpok223.endicott.ibm.com:1 (root)' desktop is gpok223.endicott.ibm.com:1<br />

Creating default startup script /root/.vnc/xstartup<br />

Starting applications specified in /root/.vnc/xstartup<br />
