I have got one of the feelings that I am completely stupid. Just to summarize the steps: After I installed clean DomU Do I have to install xserver-xorg on domU |yes/no| yes DO I have to configure ? xserver-xorg |yes/no| yes (vesa framebufer) Do I have to install KDE, kdm |yes/no| yes Do I have to install vnc4server |yes/no| no Do I have to add some ? line in domU config |yes/no| no Then I can run vncviewer from any workstation on the network do domU and it should work?

Thank you for your help so far. I did not get anywhere since your last post.What I want is to access domU directly. I don't dont want to use dom0 as you sugested as Method number 1 (one). Method 2 does not sound good neither. I could not find out how to do that.Method 3, I would like to avoid NX server as VNC client is always available everywhere. NX client not. What would like to have is simple running vnc-server in domU. Is there anywhere any documentation how to do this in xen domU. I just cannot believe that it is so hard to do this. If I cannot get into it remotely there is no reason to run XEN virtual machines. Whatever I try I just cannot make it work. I cannot even start xserver. I believe that is probably the problem? als03:~# startx xauth: creating new authority file /root/.serverauth.1688 X: warning; process set to priority -1 instead of requested priority 0 X Window System Version 7.1.1 Release Date: 12 May 2006 X Protocol Version 11, Revision 0, Release 7.1.1 Build Operating System: UNKNOWNCurrent Operating System: Linux als03 2.6.18-5-xen-amd64 #1 SMP Tue Oct 2 21:48:12 UTC 2007 x86_64 Build Date: 04 September 2007 Before reporting problems, check http://wiki.x.org to make sure that you have the latest version.

Is here anyone who is accessing domU through VNC, but not from dom0?
