            Bug ID: 1232568
           Summary: Clarification of VNCServer setup Requsted
           Product: Fedora Documentation
           Version: devel
         Component: system-administrator's-guide
          Assignee: swadeley at redhat.com
          Reporter: eckirchn at gmail.com
        QA Contact: docs-qa at lists.fedoraproject.org
                CC: swadeley at redhat.com



using:

https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/Fedora/21/html/System_Administrators_Guide/ch-TigerVNC.html#configuring-vncserver-2users

[in the below statements X = {1, 2, 3....10}]

I was able to install and connect to a VNC session using "vncviewer -via XXXXX"
however it was only after executing "systemctl start vncserver@:X.service' on
the remote machine.

Executing 
  systemctl enable vncserver@:X.service

results in:
  Failed to execute operation: No such file or directory



Section 8.1.3. Starting VNC Server states:
  systemctl enable vncserver@:display_number.service

however, unless one creates a file such as: 
  vncserver@:X.service

the command 
 systemctl enable vncserver@:X.service

does not work.  After some time with the help of [coolmadmax] on IRC://#Fedora,
I was able to understand this was where I was missing a step.

I think it would help to add some clarifying statements here to help others.  

The guide [coolmadmax] suggested:  
 
https://stufs4u.wordpress.com/2014/02/25/install-and-configure-vnc-server-in-fedora-20/
added this ounce of clarification.

Help on this issue included [mutk] [fenrus02] [kendell] [devhen] and [_AnK] and
I thank all.
