added info for using VNC with a headless server
* Click on WebVNC
* Click the install icon to install it on your HDA
* Note: a very common issue is that ''you must have a desktop session open'' on your HDA to be able to open a WebVNC session. If you have a headless HDA server, see below.
That should be all you need to do for the web application setup!
You should now be able to access: [http://webvnc http://webvnc]. Give it a minute to start up, then enter your password.
Note: ''' You must have a desktop session started on your HDA for WebVNC to display.'''
Leave any questions or discussion on the [[Talk:WebVNC]] page.
Please note that at the present time, and according to the above, only port 5900 (VNC display :0) is supported. If you want to change that, then manually edit /var/hda/web-apps/webvnc/html/index.html and change 5900 to desired number (e.g. :1 = 5901, :2=5902, etc)
== Headless Servers ==
If your HDA server is headless, then webVNC is not for you (because you will not have a desktop session running). Instead, install a VNC client on your remote computer and vncserver on the HDA. Instructions to install VNC are [[VNC|Here]].
TightVNC is a more up-to-date implementation of VNC. As of July 2009, TightVNC server is not available for Fedora 10, however the TightVNC client is compatible with (regular) VNC. You may install either the VNC or TightVNC client.
