One of our Unix boxes (HPUX) is shared by a few users. Due to the company security policy, we all have our individual logon accounts and a $HOME directory. To access our shared environment and applications, we then "su" to another account to do our work.
We can all vncserver from our own accounts and create individual virtual desktops. Our $DISPLAY environment variables point to our indivual desktops and we do not interfere whith each other at all. There is also no problem running X clients such as xclock and xterm as long as we are logged in to our accounts. As soon as we "su" to the shared unix account and set our DISPLAY variables, our :n.0 virtual servers refuse connections from the X clients run by the shared account. The message we get is: AUDIT: <date/time>: <pid> Xvnc: client <n> rejected from local host or AUDIT: <date/time>: <pid> Xvnc: client <n> rejected from IP <ip address) port <port> I have read through documentation and searched this forum, but have not found a way for Xvnc to accept a connection from an X client not run by the user that started Xvnc. Any suggestions???
