Tight VNC questions?

[JHMariscal]

OJK, I can see in package manager all the tightVNC server packages that are installed, but I can't get it to work. I just need to access the system from a Vista machine.

On the Vista machine I have the TightVNC viewer, but the connection times out.

I can not find the application or how to configure it on the Suse 11.0 machine.

I have looked for tutorials, but it does not look like what I am simply trying to do.

Follow-up.

i followed this link's instructions;
Enable remote desktop on linux using VNC | Linglom's Blog

Everything worked until I go to here;

jmariscal@ITSUSE:~> chkconfig vncserver on
bash: chkconfig: command not found
jmariscal@ITSUSE:~> su
Password:
ITSUSE:/home/jmariscal # chkconfig vncserver on
vncserver: unknown service
ITSUSE:/home/jmariscal # service vncserver start
service: no such service vncserver

Please help!

Hi
The service on openSUSE is vnc so that would be;

sudo /sbin/chkconfig vnc on
