Re: Problem in getting windows console from other clients: msg#00159

Subject: Re: Problem in getting windows console from other clients
Hi Navin,

It looks like VNC is only listening on localhost, therefor you will not 
be able to connect from an external host.  To enable access from remote 
hosts:

# svccfg -s xvm/xend setprop config/vnc-listen = astring: \"0.0.0.0\"
# svcadm refresh xvm/xend
# svcadm restart xvm/xend

Then re-create your domains and VNC should be listening on *.5900 
instead of localhost.5900
