VNC

Post by kkelly »

Ive installed Gentoox via a FTP install on to my E:\ partiton and it appears to work i pressed Yes for enable VNC every time it starts and was given and ip, now i cant connect to this for the life of me. I can read anything on my tv as its Very blurry my xbox and pc see each other as i can pimp from both and the xbox and reach google.com ;) also i can connect to the WebAdmin thing on the xbox, But i cant get VNC to work any ideas guys ?
"xbox_ip:1" (im guess i put the ip in the "ip" bit?) ive tried everything i can see on search

Cheers Kev

If you have run magic then the display number will have changed to 0 (the default) you should be able to connect from a vnc client by typing xbox into the server name.
Or you can connect through your web browser by entering http://xbox:5800 as the address
