installing tomcat on linux - restart

I wasnt happy with the way the install of apache/tomcat/database (postgresql) had gone so far so I decided to start again.

Basically im reinstalling Mandrake 10.0 on my p200 64mb PC.

The first problem that I had previously encountered is that a vncserver is not installed as default in Mandrake. The thing that makes this confusing is that the tightvnc client is!

By googling I discovered that

urpmi tightvnc-server

would perform an install of tightvnc server, and it did, excellent.

Typed vncserver and setup my passwords, and im in business connected to my linux box in the office from the the laptop
