vncserver too many security failures
- by cf16
I try to connect to my vncserver running on CentOs from home computer, behind firewall. I have installed Win7 and Ubuntu both on this machine. I have an error:
VNC conenction failed: vncserver too many security failures
even when loging with right credentials (I reset passwd on CentOs).
Is it something regarding that I try as root? I think important is also that I have to login to remote Centos through port 6050 - none else port works for me. Do I have to do something with other ports? I see that vncserver is listening on 5901, 5902 if another added - and I consider connection is established because from time to time (long time) the passwd prompt appears,... right?
please help, what to do?
even if prompt appeared and I put correct password I get: authentication failure.
how to disable this lockout for a testing purposes?
