okay, i did this and it went to negotiating parameters then later says connection timed out..says error signal 15?VNC sucks with copy-paste whichever client I use so I don't recommend it.
@ accyuklad
There seems to be something wrong with "GNOME Desktop Environment" group package on Centos 6, try this:
yum groupinstall "Desktop Platform"
yum install @basic-desktop
Although I like it more than on Centos 5, cross copy paste with Windows is much easier![]()
