How do I get Chicken of the VNC to connect to a port less than 5900?

  • 772

According to the Chicken of the VNC documentation, it automatically adds 5900 to the indicated display number to calculate the port number to connect to. (So I've been able to connect to port 5999 of a host by entering 99 as the display number.) But I need to connect to a port less than 5900 at a particular host. How do I do this?

    Add :port to the hostname (you'll notice the Display option box greys out when you do this), and Chicken of the VNC will use your specified port number rather than attempting to determine one based on the Display number.
