c) Configuring VNC Terminals
The following dialog box is displayed:
Two methods are available:
- One VNC Server per Terminal: when Linux is started, one Xvnc daemon
per terminal is run. Each terminal will establish a connection to 'its' Xvnc
daemon (identified by a different TCP port).
The main benefit is after an incident (network or other), the terminal will
retrieve the lost session.
In addition with this method, the logon screen may be skipped and
replaced by any application (Firefox for example).
- One TCP Port per Screen Type: an Xvnc daemon is run only when a
VNC terminal opens a connection. The TCP port depends on both the
resolution and the number of colors.
This mechanism is similar to telnet or SSH: all terminals can use the
same TCP port but in event of problem the lost session can't be retrieved.
The benefit is saving resources: the number of running Xvnc daemons is
the number of terminals currently in use.
Note: the two methods may be hosted on the same Linux server.
