Hi,
I've seen this asked a few times, but I just can't work out whether I am misinterpreting how this is supposed to work, or if it is just broken in my setup.
What I want is to be able to see the character cell console of DomU's via VNC. As far as I understand, when I create/startup
the DomU, then a vnc server should start listening on my Dom0. I have tried every combination of VNC=1, VNCVIEWER=0 in my config file but at no point do I get a VNC port being opened for listening on the Dom0. Dom0 is Hardy Heron, DomU's are Centos 5.2 and Hardy. *********************************************************** At CentOS 5.2 DomU vfb works fine:-

http://bderzhavets.blogspot.com/2008/10/install-ubuntu-hardy-pv-domu-vnc-at.html ********************************************************** All the Xen kernel and tools were as was provided by the
repositories. When I was trying this a while ago with Centos 5.1 as the Dom0, I was using virtual machine manager which seemed to give me a colourful representation of the console/,
which I assume now was over VNC. I haven't got that setup anymore to reference, alas and virtual-machine-manager seems broken on Hardy, afa I can tell.
So, am I missing something or is it supposed to work the way I described? If so, what should I have in my config files/sxp to make it work?
Thanks in advance and be gentle with me because I am a noob Xen user!
Ian.
