Hi!

It should be easy ... but does not work!

The simple question is:

How to setup a vnc server on kubuntu to a android client?

Now, what I have tried ...
1. Shut down my firewall ... just in case.
2. Started krfb.
3. Started an invited connection which generated a password.
4. Allowed a non invited connection.
Both from 3 an 4 I got a message from kde that the connection from a
<variable (not 5900)> port was refused.
On the android client (I tried 3) the reason for the failure was "null"!
The specified port is 5900.

5. I tried vncserver ...
5a. vncserver alone caused a navigation through several trivial
questions, including a password, which I answer.
vncserver creates a :1 session. Invoking a second time creates a :2.
I have nothing at :1 and :2 so I tried
vncserver :0
but it claims that there is already a session open there. Was it from krfb?

Thanks for any help/comments.
