Nicely done, but i really wish you had a video on how to set it up on windows as well. oh well... back to the search engine.

And so I don't look completely stupid I am brand new to Linux, actually never taught or knew it existed til recently, or used it til like 3 weeks ago, on a 2 hour a week. basis And am new with computers all together! I fought against technology forever and and swore I would never own a computer until I started having to use them for everything, and now here I am pursuing my degree in Computer Programming! I love computers and am learning a lot about them, but still have a long way to go!

Do you do video tutoring, ha! I have been Googleing for the last 3 weeks trying to get steps to do the remote desktop using Fedora 8. Steps seem to be different for different versions and names and haven't found a match. I have a presentation to do in like 6 days, and have maybe the slightest. It sucks cause I'm using a virtual machine with the Fedora 8 cause that's all we have at the school. I have recieved no help despite several e-mails to my instructor and lab techs, and need help!

Excellent video and well explained. I regard myself as a "competant" linux user but there is always more to learn as particularly with linux there is always another way.

Greats Stuff!!!!

Great video, I'm a PC repair person (CompTIA A+ Certified IT Technician). Obviously I repair Windows machines. However, I also have been learning GNU/Linux (Ubuntu), I dual-boot with Windows and also run it in VirtualBox on the Vista partition, so now I also advertise that I repair Linux machines. I am starting school for Linux Network Administration in August, at which time I will also learn shell, perl,etc. My point: Watching your vid and your use of the shell makes me feel like a noob!

I am trying to do this on my Windows XP Prof sp3 computer as server and school computer as client... how do I do this... I searched and wanted to find a video but no hits.

ok. i have setup VNC & SSH.

I can setup my SSH session, when i type in vncviewer * I get error:

X connection to localhost:13.0 broken (explicit kill or server shutdown).

Is this something wrong with my server setup? Or my Putty setup?

i have followed your video to the T. However, i cannot get vncviewer to open from SSH.

I can use seperate software on my PC, vncviewer. And it works just fine.

I am connecting to Linux machine (pclinuxos) from Vista

any help would be awesome. Great Video!

Great how to video. Clear and to the point.

[tanstaafl72555]

Thank you for this well done, instructive and easy to follow vid.

I have been using linux for about 3 years now, but am really a noobie as far as many activities go. This was extremely helpful

[marinestu]

What a great video very clear and easy to follow. Thanks

[Ignofibininious]

Great vid

...but one small note...it's pronounced like this. ooboontoo. I know this without a doubt, as that is the way Mark Shuttleworth, the head guy at canonical(makers of ubuntu) pronounces it in videos of interviews.

Might want to consider putting in a list of all of the commands that were entered, so users can reference it while doing this on their own.

[emiemi2]

I added the list in the video description on the right, hope it helps.

Heh heh heh Great tutorial 5 stars.

I love opensource software. For the same reason I love what "Stealing" music using the internet has done for the music industry. It makes record companies, music artists and in this case Software manufacturers produce work comprised of more quality. Times are changing brother.
