Hi:)

I moved to dedicated machine based in Linux.

Ofc, I got server IP, root and password from provider for SSH connection which works fine.

..but I would like to connect to my server by VNC to see graphic desktop but I cant, lol. When I choose VNC and enter server IP I get info that connection was closed.

Can you tell me how to do this?

Thank you.
Regards.

You does not need graphic desktop on the server.

..so how to connect to see dedicated machine desktop?

[Aikimaniac]

Linux so not that specific...what linux distro you use ?

[goncafa]

You only need ssh.

and provably your server should have installed and runing an X window like Gnome or KDE if your want to connect with VNC.

download putty , you will have a terminal.. not a desktop..

well, I use Ubuntu 10.10

I have installed GNOME and now I can connect via VNC but my desktop is "blank" lol

anyway if I only need SSH so how to manage a server? (copy server files, start server, view logs etc.) That's why I need "windows" desktop to manage this.

Use Putty + WinSCP and will be nice

using linux commands ofc you can do everything without a gui

you dont need window desktop fot manage this. and if you have not running a windows desktop you haven more memory for your L2J.

ok, thx, I will try

There's a downside though - without a GUI you need to know all necassary console commands and it also takes more time, especially if you're not experienced.

[badboy29]

Yeah you need learn about VI, permissions, move files/rename, copy files, etc. Not hard, just search on our friend google

[jurchiks]

Also, I can imagine that editing files through console is kind of hard, if not impossible.

[badboy29]

This depends on the size of the content, if too many rows to edit i prefer to use WinSCP, is very helpful in such cases.
