teach preupgrade about custom vnc ports
Last modified: 2014-01-21 18:07:15 EST
Description of problem: preupgrade-cli can set up a vnc server on port 5901. That's nice, but my datacenter has a firewall that precludes the use of that port. I'd like to be able to set a custom vnc port. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): preupgrade-1.0.0-1
This isn't possible with the kernel-commandline VNC setup used in preugprade-1.0.0. As a workaround, you can remove the 'vnc...' arguments from the kernel commandline and add a line like the following to /boot/upgrade/ks.cfg: vnc --password=PASSWORD --port=PORT preupgrade-1.0.1 will configure vnc and network using /boot/upgrade/ks.cfg, so you'll just need to add "--port XXX" to the 'vnc' line.

preupgrade-cli for Fedora 12 continues to require VNC. What about CLI do you not understand? If you can run the preupgrade-cli FROM THE COMMAND LINE (SSH) then get rid of preupgrade-cli and only have preupgrade.
