RE: [Xen-users] Maintain VNC session across reboots?



        I believe the vnc serving process is terminated when the domain is
terminated.  When the domain is recreated (shortly thereafter when
restarting), a new vnc serving process is started.  Assuming you are setting
the port, it will be the same, but you have to reconnect.  Some vnc clients
will try to automatically reconnect on a lost connection when configured to
do so.  This could work depending on how long there is no vnc serving
process for the appropriate port and/or how quickly (or how many times) the
vnc client tries to reconnect.  I have had this work from time to time with
a RealVNC client, but not consistently.  I think the serving process usually
sends a disconnect server, so the client assumes it was a clean disconnect
instead of a lost connection so really a setting to reconnect on disconnect
instead of just on a lost connection would be necessary).

Subject: [Xen-users] Maintain VNC session across reboots?

Hello,
I have Ubuntu installed as a domU on the debian dom0, and connect via VNC
in dom0. This is great for doing installs, and seeing the console
output. However
the VNC session doesn't seem to keep the active connection during a domU
reboot.
Has anyone got this working?
If so, how?
