[Wien] View structure in a remote machine

[Rubel, Oleg]

Hi Pablo,

of course it is up to you to select the software, but Zoom is great for video conferencing and is probably not an ideal solution for remote control. Here is a wiki quote: "Virtual Network Computing is a graphical desktop-sharing system that uses the Remote Frame Buffer protocol to remotely control another computer." There should be a plenty of info in internet on how to set it up. VNC is easier on network and gives a "smoother" control experience when it comes to xcrysden rendering. (At least this was my experience.)

Good luck
Oleg

I have used "zoom" and it works in my machine and the other people that are connected, but not in the remote computer.
Maybe there is a trick that I do not see.

Oleg, sorry for my late reply.
When I am working directly on one computer and I would like to see the crystal structure then I push the "view structure" button and the structure appears in the screen, but when I am in a remote computer working the WIEN2k and I push this button then the crystal structure is displayed in the other computer and non in mine.
Does VNC corrects or solves this problem?
Cheers

Pablo

I would suggest trying VNC (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EWkrqqnOgdo). It has a number of advantages over X11 display forwarding.

Dear WIEN2k community,
I am doing calculations in a remote machine ("remote.machine")
I can connect with
remote.machine:7890
and with this I can do calculations in than machine
but when I try to see the crystal structure, xcrysden, the image appears in "remote.machine" so I cannot see it in my machine at home
Is there a way to visualize the crystal structure in my machine at home?
The same seems to happen with Electron Density Plots.

Cheers

Pablo
