Hi Fadia,

Are u installing VNC on Redhat linux?
is bash v2.0 or above is available on your system?

read the pre-requisites of different linux distributions here.

you can also download the required products from the same place.

You can have a try without bash 2.0. Perform rpm with --nodeps switch.
rpm -i --nodeps vnc-server-3.3.3r2-47.i386.rpm
If vnc still not work. You have to upgrade bash 2.0+ rpm.As bash rpm at following url.

1/ perform command "vncpasswd" on linux server to assign a password

2/ perform command "vncserver" on linux server to start vnc service. You must notice the stdout line.

For example as following:

Warning: NiCK:2 is taken because of /tmp/.X11-unix/X2
Remove this file if there is no X server NiCK:2

New 'NiCK:3 (root)' desktop is NiCK:3

Starting applications specified in /root/.vnc/xstartup
Log file is /root/.vnc/NiCK:3.log

3/ start vnc clinet on windows pc and fill "ipaddress:3" in the server,then input password and open linux desktop
