Configure VNC session to persist after exiting the VNC client

In My last Post we have learn how to install & configure a VNC server with GDM on a Solaris 10 OS. We will see in this post How to Configure a VNC session to persist even after exiting the VNC client. This may or may not be desirable for you, but if you want the VNC session to persist if you exit the VNC client then do the following: #  svccfg -s xvnc-inetd svc:/application/x11/xvnc-inetd>  editprop This take you into a vi session. Look for the line... #setprop inetd/wait = boolean: false Copy the line, uncomment it and set it to true. Save the file, exit svccfg and run the command... #  svcadm refresh xvnc-inetd Connect again with you VNC client. Now, when you exit/kill the VNC client, the session on the server will persist and you will be able to connect to it again.

How to Install & Configure VNC Server with GDM on Solaris10

VNC ( Virtual Network Computing) is a way to access and control the desktop of a remote computer. For this functionality the remote computer must be running VNC server software. The OpenSolaris 2008.05 binary distribution or Solaris10 Companion CD includes the SUNWxvnc package for the Solaris operating system. Once this package is installed, you can connect to the Solaris operating system from any other operating system that has a VNC client installed. alternatively you can download SUNWxvnc package from below link http://en.sourceforge.jp/projects/sfnet_solarispackages/downloads/solaris10-508-x86_packages/SUNWxvnc.tgz 1. Check that the VNC Server is Installed This should be present as it is part of the 2008.05 binary distribution, but I checked anyway. #  pkg info SUNWxvnc           Name: SUNWxvnc        Summary: X11/VNC server          State: Installed      Authority: opensolaris.org (preferred)        Version: 4.1.2  Build Release: 5.11         Branch:

Introduction-to-PPPoE

PPPoE  stands for  Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet . It is a network protocol sometimes used by Broadband Modems  for DSL  Internet service. PPPoE allows Internet Service Providers to manage access to accounts via user names and passwords. DSL service providers began using PPPoE many years ago, as it proved a convenient technical solution for converting subscribers from dial-up Internet. While convenient for service providers, some customers of PPPoE-based Internet service have experienced problems with their connection due to incompatibility between PPPoE technology and their personal network firewalls. Contact your service provider to verify whether they use PPPoE and get any assistance needed with your firewall settings. The PPPoE protocol specification is Internet RFC 2516. look at this introductory paper  Introduction-to-PPPoE.pdf

Introduction to Multilink PPP - MLP

Multilink PPP (MLP), as defined in RFC 1990, is a variant of PPP used to aggregate multiple WAN links into one logical channel for the transport of traffic. It enables the load-balancing of traffic from different links and allows some level of redundancy in case of a line failure on a single link. Multilink PPP (MP) or (MLP) provides an approach to increasing bandwidth. It allows multiple PPP links to form an MP bundle. After receiving a packet, MP segments (if the packet is large) the packet into fragments and distributes them over multiple PPP links to the remote end. After the remote end receives these fragments, it assembles them into a packet and passes the packet to the network layer. MP functions to: l          Increase bandwidth, or dynamically increase/reduce bandwidth in combination with dial control center (DCC) l          Load sharing l          Backup l          Decrease transmission delay through fragmentation MP can work on any physical or virtual
