Hello,

I'm having problems authenticating to my turbovnc server.
It used to work, then it stopped, for unknown reasons.

This is what I tried so far:
- re-running vncpasswd
- verifying selinux is in permissive mode
- restarting the turbovnc server

Can I run the server in some verbose logging mode?

this is the command I use at the client
/opt/TurboVNC/bin/vncviewer 192.168.201.66::5902

the rpm I use at the server:
Name : turbovnc

First, upgrade to the 2.1 final release. 2.0.91 (2.1 beta2) has lots of
bugs that were fixed. Always try the latest version before reporting
that something doesn't work.

Secondly, provide more details about exactly what you are trying to do.
What type of authentication are you attempting (VNC password? PAM?
X.509?) Are any error messages displayed? Describe the failure in detail.

It turned out to be a silly error on my side.

Thanks for the help, and sorry for the noise!
