Hello,

can someone tell my, why vnc has introduced an extra password for vnc
authentication ?
I wonder why I must set it separately - why cant`t Xvnc authenticate my
session password
via standard kernel routines aganinst my user-account (/etc/shadow...) ?
Is it, because password hashing is done on the client side and there is no
way for Xvnc to
crypt/md5 that password for comparison against the shadow-password?
since there is modification for windows vnc server to authenticate against
NT Domain I wonder if
there is a similar feature in Xvnc (auth. against unix password) ?
regards
Roland
