VNC

it's video. So when I go back to it and try to use it... it never wakes up. The machine works and does it's job... but there's no display. Stranger yet, I can VNC into it and use it without a problem. ...

Or turn it in to a fileserver, which is what I did with my sawtooth G4 tower. Whack in a gigabit ethernet card, which make sit as fast to access the drives as over usb2/firewire, then connect to it from other machiens using apple-K. Once you've set it up the first time, mounting is as quick as apple-k, return, and return again. You can also then access it remotely with VNC...

Hi, I have recently had a problem with one of our servers (running OsX 10.4.8 Server). Normally I connect remotely via Chicken of the VNC, as it doesn't have a graphics card and is in another room.

I've had problems with the VNC component in Tiger. Vine Server has proven to be more stable for me on my Macs as a VNC server. They also now have a VNC client included with the server, or you can download the VNC client separately. ...

I connect to a windows fileserver on my network using vnc and I've been able to successfully get it to work. The only difference is that I havn't tried ARD 3, because I decided to go for a free alternative. ...

I think you could do that with VLC and a VNC program to control the other machine perhaps. ...

Thanks... VNC though won't allow me an audio feed.. ...
