open vnc asking for license key

VinodN76Jul 10 2014 — edited Jul 21 2014

Hi all,

I am trying to install the free version of vnc on my RHEL box:

[root@erp virtualbox_4.2.6]# uname -a

Linux *********** 2.6.18-194.el5 #1 SMP Tue Mar 16 21:52:39 EDT 2010 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

[root@erp virtualbox_4.2.6]# rpm -Uvh vnc-4_1_3-x86_linux.rpm

Preparing... ########################################### [100%]

1:vnc ########################################### [100%]

Checking for perl... [OK]

Checking for uname... [OK]

Checking for xauth... [OK]

But when I am trying to run it, it is throwing following error message:

[root@erp virtualbox_4.2.6]# vncserver

VNC(R) Server 5.2.0 (r118477) 64-bit (Jun 3 2014 10:59:51)

VNC is a registered trademark of RealVNC Ltd in the U.S. and in other

countries.

Error: No license keys found.

Run vnclicense to apply a license key. [NoLicense]

Why is license required for free version? Am I doing something wrong here?

Regards,

Vinod
