You're about right. The first thing should be using the '-desktop name' as the entire title or at least put that in front. An idea for situations where xdmcp is used is somehow fetch the actual username and the actual machine to which is logged in. Currently it is the account and machien on which Xvnc is running, which is most likely not the case if the -broadcast option is used. > > This has raised far too many "gotta time for a quick question?" > I don't want to explain how I have this setup to each and > every end user. > Without actually tweeking the source, is there a way to clean this up? > I'd prefer something like. > > AIXBOX desktop > > or anything less than what I'm getting. Or using the predefined X11 naming options as in `man X`: use '-title ...', if that's not used, then '-name ...'. I know these are for X11 apps, not for the Xserver but from a X11 point of view, an Xserver does not have a title. _______________________________________________ VNC-List mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.realvnc.com/mailman/listinfo/vnc-list
