Hoi,
I have installed vnc4.1 on a pc with windows.
If i build up a connection from a fedora6 machine to the win98 pc - with the firewall on - it works If i build up a connection from win98 to the fedora6 pc - with the fire wall on - i get NO connection
When i build up a VNC connection from a FC6 to a FC6 pc - with the fire wall on - i get no connection When i build up a vnc connection with the firewall off on the server (The screen i get) - it works
So i think i have to allow some ports in the Linux firewall Which ports and what is the syntax to add them.
Well, I'm not a huge fan of just running vnc as it's insecure. I prefer to tunnel it via ssh, in which case you only need to open the ssh port (TCP port 22). However, raw VNC servers use TCP port (5900 + the number of the display). So, for the first display, TCP 5900. For the second, port 5901 and so on.
What are the default ports used by Rsync for building up a connection to a internet rsync-server?
rsync uses port 873, both TCP and UDP.
