Binary package hint: vino

I'm running Ubuntu Hardy. When vino-server is configured to listen only
on local interfaces, it doesn't accept connections from IPv4 addresses.
This means that "vncviewer localhost" will end up with connection
refused.

Vino configurations:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ gconftool -a /desktop/gnome/remote_access
 authentication_methods = [none]
 lock_screen_on_disconnect = true
 use_alternative_port = false
 require_encryption = false
 view_only = false
 prompt_enabled = false
 icon_visibility = client
 vnc_password = 
 enabled = true
 local_only = true
 alternative_port = 5900
 mailto = 


Although it's possible to connect through an IPv6 ssh tunnel, I think it's not 
appropriate to reject IPv4 connections.
