![]() ![]() Jack In, The 2023 Cyberdeck Challenge Starts Now 14 Comments ![]() But I admit considering OS X ships with a built in VNC server, it might be an interesting option. You make a configuration file (very simple) with your hostnames and the way they are place to each others (left, right, up, down) just like you said for 2vnc. As for ax0n, yes that’s exactly how synergy works. Only thing that’s quiet pissing me off is that if the server machine – the one with the physical keyboard – reboots (which happens often as it’s a workstation) I need to use some screen sharing app (say VNC) to make the screensaver go out, otherwise Synergy will not work when I restart it via SSH. Getting it to work with Fast User Switch was a bit of a hassle but it’s doable. There is a bit of lag when I’m transfering a file at the same time, but nothing horrible. I have a dual input screen – NEC MultiSync FP955 – so I really didn’t need to share the monitor, plus with every app I’ve tried, even on LAN, it’s awefully slow. TCP over Firewire between both machines (Both Macs, one runs 10.4.1 and the other 10.3.9). I’ve been using Synergy for the past few month. X2vnc: (Page has links to all the other VNC Software I mentioned as well) This hack is nifty and I’ll give it a try, but I use x2vnc daily at work, as I have 3 desktops and sometimes a laptop that I have to work on all at the same time. As you scoot the mouse off the edge of the screen of your main box, it shifts keyboard focus and starts moving the mouse around on the other screens. You can run multiple *2vnc clients on the main terminal, and tell them “North, South, East or West” for the orientation of the other machines you want to control.įrom there, you run x11vnc, macVNC, winVNC, or whatever other flavor of VNC server suits the other machines. Then, you run a VNC server on your other machines. You use Win2VNC if your keyboard’s on a Windows box. x2x works only between *NIX/XFree86 boxes without using VNC. You use x2vnc or x2x if your keyboard’s on a *nix box (in my case, OpenBSD 3.6) It works just as well with other BSD’s, Linux, AIX, and Solaris. ![]()
