This is a multi-part message in MIME format. ------=_NextPartTM-000-e59cc44b-4c16-11d6-a942-00b0d0d06be8 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="US-ASCII" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Thanks for the information. Even I have also not tried as to what limit the numbers can go. We have gone up to only 15. Also I did not know that one could assign a predefined number. When vncserver was running, never bothered to read the man page :-).

Hello - DISCLAIMER - I am not able to try this in FreeBSD, so the limit may differ.

If omitted, the next free display number is used. There is apparently a limit on display numbers - I was able to assign '99' but not '101' - but the number seems to be greater than '2'. YMMV. - John Mills ------=_NextPartTM-000-e59cc44b-4c16-11d6-a942-00b0d0d06be8 Content-Type: text/plain; name="Wipro_Disclaimer.txt" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="Wipro_Disclaimer.txt" **************************Disclaimer************************************ Information contained in this E-MAIL being proprietary to Wipro Limited is 'privileged' and 'confidential' and intended for use only by the individual or entity to which it is addressed.
