Hello,

Is it required to install an additional VNC server on XCP 1.1.0 dom0 box (ip 192.168.1.50)to get access to VNC-windows for installing domU guests?

As I don't use m$ / XenCenter so I need VNC for installation of new guests.

The VM is running (s. below) *but* I was not able to open VNC window to continue the installation (s. error message further below)
