i want to test whether qt is supporting VNC or not. For that i have written a small layout program using Qt library. the source code for the layout program is as follows: layout.cpp #include <QApplication> #include <QHBoxLayout> #include <QSlider> #include <QSpinBox> int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { QApplication app(argc, argv); QWidget *window = new QWidget; window->setWindowTitle("Enter The Age of the person"); QSpinBox *spinBox = new QSpinBox; QSlider *slider = new QSlider(Qt::Horizontal); spinBox->setRange(0, 130); slider->setRange(0, 130); QObject::connect(spinBox, SIGNAL(valueChanged(int)), slider, SLOT(setValue(int))); QObject::connect(slider, SIGNAL(valueChanged(int)), spinBox, SLOT(setValue(int))); spinBox->setValue(35); QHBoxLayout *layout = new QHBoxLayout; layout->addWidget(spinBox); layout->addWidget(slider); window->setLayout(layout); window->show(); return app.exec(); } i want to run this as server application on my linux PC.For that what i configured Qt and installed like this. ./configure -qt-gfx-vnc make make install The program is working fine. But if i run the application as VNC server application like ./layout -qws -display VNC:0 i am encountering an error.it says that "_X11TransSocketINETConnect() can't get address for VNC:6000: Temporary failure in name resolution".. pls help me what i need to do. Thanks
