I used the following script to start x11vnc on my wife's machine so that I can 
access her desktop when she needs my help.

<code>
#!/bin/bash
/usr/bin/killall x11vnc
if [ "$1" != 'stop' ]; then
 sleep 3
 x11vnc -display :0 -usepw -xkb -forever -ncache_cr >/dev/null 2>&1 &
fi
</code>

I ran vncpasswd on her machine, as her user, to set the password.  I then use 
"vncviewer 192.168.6.21:0" to see her desktop.  I left it as a script to run 
from her desktop so that she would have to "invite" me, or could "uninvite" me, 
by running the script.
