But to answer your question, vncservers file is a little different . . . there are two type of lines: 1. contains a space-separated list of port and usernames separated by colons, e.g.: VNCSERVERS="92:gmatz 44:wsmith"
2. contains arguments to be supplied to vncserver, with port number acting as an aray index, e.g.: VNCSERVERARGS[92]="-geometry 1280x1024" VNCSERVERARGS[44]="-geometry 1280x1024" I was hoping to parse the vncserver config file using two different type of record_lines, one for each of the line types . . . thanks, guy On Mon, Sep 19, 2011 at 1:48 PM, Stefan Schulte < [email protected]> wrote: > On Thu, Sep 15, 2011 at 04:22:45PM -0400, Guy Matz wrote: > > hi!
