The current display that is using the user is :0. And I want to connect to the remote user, teach how to do some things and the user can't interact with her desktop so the kbd/mouse input is blocked. And about the display 0, I just know in linux the gemsvnc server to use the same display without opening a new one. > > And in the Windows one with TightVNC I can disable the local keyboard and > > mouse > > in the user options and it notify to the service. > > RealVNC also supports this option (providing that the server is running > Windows NT/2000/XP). That's not so easy, it has to be transparent for the user and the person that wants to connect to the remote desktop. In the tightvnc one in Windows, when you apply the change it notify the server but I can't automatize it. (I can't write anything in the register and notify to the server without restarting the windows user session) In Linux I have no any option to do that and blocking the input is not posible with X Window Programming because I have to interact with the VNC session.
