Hi,

Anyone else use the System Server in OSXVnc to load the VNC server at start up before any users log in?

This feature worked in Tiger but now in Leopard the process starts and at startup and quits right away.

Anyone know how to work around this? I heard there will be a fix for it in the next release of Vine Server, but I was hoping someone knew a quick fix in the interim.

Thanks!
 
Problems with Vine VNC Server

Hi

I also had problems with Vine Server when I changed over to Leopard.

I use the System Server in Vine to ensure it is always running without having another application running as such and it worked perfectly in Tiger.

Since I changed to Leopard it seems to allow connections for a short while, maybe 30 minutes or so, then reports "The server has closed the connection".

I have tried various options and have so far been unable to correct this so I have just downloaded and installed the Server 3.1 Beta2 and so far that is working well.

You can find it here:
http://www.testplant.com/downloads/VineServer3.1Beta2.dmg
though I expect it is also available elsewhere.

Good luck.
