Hi. Interesting tip! Do you know if this is in FC3 or just in FC4?
Thanks.

Actually, for Fedora Core (and likely other distros with recent VNC
versions) you don't even need x11vnc to attach to the current
screen/session. Just add:
Load "vnc"
to your xorg.conf file Modules section and
Option "passwordFile" "/home/david/.vnc/passwd"
to your Screen section (change the passwd file location as
necessary).
Create the password file using vncpasswd. VNC passwords are not
tied to
user accounts, so you can use any VNC passwd no matter the user
account
logged in.
Then disable the vncserver process from init.d -- you won't need it
anymore. This way you use the stock VNC distro. It's very slick,
and
performance and resource utilization is much better since you're not
starting a whole new X session for VNC like you do with vncserver.
Hey - thanks for that. I've been using x11vnc - I didn't know it was
built into the distro already. I've now got rid of x11vnc and I've
noticed that this is quicker on the client end.
Thanks,
Phill
