Is the Rivendell box popping up a dialog on it's screen to ask permission to 
share the desktop?

The 2.x appliances would do that.

Subject: [RDD] tight vnc into new appliance

This is a brand new Paravel Appliance being set up on minimal CentOS 7.  I have 
installed as root the x11vnc-auto per the instructions Nov 2018 RDD, including 
systemctl start x11vnc-auto.socket and systemctl enable x11vnc-auto.socket.  As 
user rd used vnc password and following the prompts I set a password but did 
not use a view only password.  Up until this point everything has gone as 
expected except when I use a TightVNC from Windows 10 Pro across the LAN the 
Appliance connects and asks for the password.  When I put in the correct 
password, the Appliance responds with "The connection has been gracefully 
closed".  /home/rd/vnc.log is empty. Tail of dmesg has nothing I recognize as 
vnc related. This same Windows 10 computer Tight VNC works on 11 other (older) 
Appliances.  This is my first RD3 and my first in CentOS 7 - everything else 
was in CentOS 6 and I have to use notes just to get around.

Do you think I need to add the password to root to get the VNC to open?  What 
else should I do to get this working?
