In fact, it depends on the way you launched you vnc server. When I launch a new vnc server (command "vncserver"), it starts a new X server with a virtual screen. This is really secure, because there are no physical screen attached to it, so a bad guy in front of the workstation can't access it.
Which tool/command are you using to start your vnc server ? I think a real X server shared with VNC should not be locked when a VNC client is connecting :a lot of people (hum... me) are using this behavior to remotely help and train my end-users. -- local screen unlocked by remote connection via VNC https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/484476 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
