VNC Question(s) FC5

Seve · #1 22nd March 2006, 11:34 PM

Hi:
I have VNC installed and running on 2 FC5 boxes [client server] running as they should. However, I am unable to connect from the client to the server with VNC ? The error is No route to host (113) ?
I can ssh , ping & traceroute without problems both ways? For some reason i cannot get VNC to work as it should...or rather as it did with FC4.

Any suggestions or help would be greatly appreciated.

Well...I have narrowed it down to a firewall issue on the server. If I disable the firewall I have no problems connecting. SeLinux is enforced and the connection can be made as long as the Firewall is turned off.
Now to determine which port(s) VNC uses to see if I can put the firewall back in place.
Any suggestions on how to determine which port(s) VNC is using?
Thanks

Just detemined it is port 5900..which when allowed/opened on the server it works perfectly and the firewall can be turned on.
