Hi, Ivan.  The VNC passwords are random and stored in encrypted form in
the CloudStack cloud database.  Get the ciphertext in the vnc_password
field for the VM in vm_instance, e.g.:

SELECT vnc_password FROM vm_instance WHERE uuid = '<ID from UI>'

Decrypt it:

java -classpath /usr/share/cloudstack-common/lib/jasypt-1.9.0.jar
org.jasypt.intf.cli.JasyptPBEStringDecryptionCLI decrypt.sh
input="<ciphertext>" password="<database key>" verbose=false

And use it to connect via VNC.

Best regards,
Kirk
