TIP #1 you need to know what's going inside your fake X server, install x11vnc server, make it to serve your fake display server port e.g. :101, now connect with this vnc server using a vnc client on your desktop and see what's actually happening inside the X and what's the behavior of Skype client -- Visually. -m On Sat, Aug 28, 2010 at 6:24 AM, Sameer Khan <sameer2k3t@gmail.com> wrote:

hi all i am trying to use multiple instances of same skype user, i want to run 20 instances skype version is the latest downloaded from skype website, i couldnot find skype 2.0.72 FS is the latest git

my db files are located in /root/multi/01/skypeuser similarly /root/multi/02/skypeuser

my multi.sh is:

#start the fake X server on a given port /usr/bin/Xvfb :101 -screen 0 800x600x16 -nolisten tcp -ac & sleep 3

# start a Skype client instance that will connect to the X server above, and will login to the Skype network using the 'username password' you send to it on stdin. Here passwd5 would be the password and user5 the username su root -c "/bin/echo 'skypeuser passwd1'| DISPLAY=:101 /usr/bin/skype --dbpath=/root/multi/01 --pipelogin &"

exit 0

but skype is unable to login... this user can not come online.. am i making any mistake in dbpath or somewhere else????

also when i kill the Xvfb it says

FreeFontPath: FPE "unix/:7100" refcount is 2, should be 1; fixing.

thanks
