Once the initialization is finished, Anaconda will attempt to connect to the IP address and port you provided in the previous step. Commands for using a VNC installation are also available in Kickstart installations.
Using just the vnc command will set up an installation using Direct Mode. Options are available to set up an installation using Connect Mode. For more information about the vnc command and options used in Kickstart files, see Kickstart Syntax Reference.
When installing headless systems, the only choices are an automated Kickstart installation or an interactive VNC installation using connect mode.
For more information about automated Kickstart installation, see Kickstart Syntax Reference. The general process for an interactive VNC installation is described below. Set up a PXE server that will be used to start the installation. However, when directed to boot the system, boot it from the PXE server. Want to help? Learn how to contribute to Fedora Docs. Edit this Page.
To install any of the viewers listed above, execute the following command as root :. Direct Mode In this mode, Anaconda is configured to start the installation and wait for an incoming connection from VNC viewer before proceeding.
Choosing a VNC Installation Mode Visual and Interactive access to the system If visual and interactive access to the system being installed is not available, then you should use Connect Mode. Note the IP address and port number in the above example, Replace PORT with the port number you want to use for the connection. The terminal will display a message similar to the following example:. Example 1. TigerVNC Viewer bit v1. Thu Feb 20 main: Listening on port Considerations for Headless Systems When installing headless systems, the only choices are an automated Kickstart installation or an interactive VNC installation using connect mode.
Recommend 'manual' or 'automatic', anything else will cause problems. Remove service when complete? Command-line switch takes precedence Setting this to 'true' will automatically change bStop to 'true'. If set to false, it will use whatever vncviewer is located in the root of the script folder. You can enter computer names into this file for a very rudimentary way of telling the remote computer to prompt to allow the remote connection originating from those computers. Default value in this file is 'exclude all workstations'.
Want to make the status window look pretty? Download a dark image and resize it to x Copy it into the root of the 'vnc' folder where this script is stored. Make sure it is a JPG and call it 'background. I have to admit, some of these may not even make a difference - this was some older settings that may have gotten overridden due to some changes. This is a pretty complex script, and is capable of quite a few things, so it's definitely not a quick "out of the box" kinda thing to wrap your head around.
However, once running, it can save you tons of time. I have the install complete on my computer and try to push to my other computer and this is what the install tool says before the VncViewer Message Box comes up with a "Failed to connect to server! This looks awesome, but I am having a problem with the domain username and password. It is pushing properly, but when I try from command line, it isn't allowing me to change the user I am logging in as.
Can you give a little better idea of how to do this? I tried realvnc, and tightvnc, so either should work, preferably tightvnc though. Steven: True, and Skeep is alright program, but from what I could tell, you are limited to one VNC distribtion, and you can't include it in 3rd party programs via command-line or am I wrong? Terry - this is typically due to a permissions issue on the remote computer.
Can you verify that you have full administrative capabilities on that box. Check the firewall settings. Aaron - when you are using the free distributions of real and tight VNC, you do not connect with a user account, only a password. Is this what you mean? I am having proplems too! I can access the remote machine via run and the admin share of the remote PC but when i run VNC vbs it can says I dont have access to the remote share but I do!
This tests the WMI connectivity to that computer. Does this work? I need a little help. When double clicking on the vbs script it brings up the correct setup window. Thats what I'm using on our win 7 Machines at the moment.
I am also getting an error. I have worked through the install errors that I had. Thank you for the help Rob. Can I use this program to remote in to control a computer from SpiceWorks? And How? However, when connecting, it never prompts for a password and then the connection fails. I can then run the UltraVNC viewer and connect just fine. John i know this is late in the conversation, even when setting up windows authentication you must set a standard vnc password. For details, refer to Section 7.
To use a network source for the installation, prepare a server as described in Chapter 16, Setting Up a Network Installation Source. Instead of using a keyboard and monitor directly attached to the target machine, the installation can be controlled via SSH, VNC, or by using the serial console of a machine.
This is described in the sections Section Instead of manually controlling the installation, AutoYaST can be used for fully automating the installation process. This section introduces the most common installation scenarios for remote installations. For each scenario, carefully check the list of prerequisites and follow the procedure outlined for that scenario. If in need of detailed instructions for a particular step, follow the links provided for each one of them.
This type of installation still requires some degree of physical access to the target system to boot for installation. The installation is controlled by a remote workstation using VNC to connect to the installation program.
User interaction is required as with the manual installation in Chapter 8, Installation Steps. When the boot screen of the target system appears, use the boot parameters prompt to set the VNC options and, if required, the static network configuration.
For information about boot parameters, see Chapter 7, Boot Parameters. The target system boots to a text-based environment, giving the network address and display number under which the graphical installation environment can be addressed by any VNC viewer application or browser. They can be found using slptool as described in Section On the controlling workstation, open a VNC viewing application or Web browser and connect to the target system as described in Section Perform the installation as described in Chapter 8, Installation Steps.
Reconnect to the target system after it reboots for the initial system configuration. This type of installation does not require a direct interaction with the target machine. The system is booted via PXE and the installation data is fetched from a server. To perform this type of installation, make sure that the following requirements are met:. Set up the server that contains the installation data. Add the required boot parameters to enable the VNC server.
Enable PXE boot in the target machine firmware. For more information, see Section Initiate the boot process of the target system using Wake on LAN. This is described in Section This type of installation still requires some degree of physical access to the target system to boot for installation and to determine the IP address of the installation target. The installation itself is entirely controlled from a remote workstation using SSH to connect to the installer.
