I followed this link to start x11vnc when the server is powered: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=488207
In light of the present hacking episode, i decided to disable this feature: i removed /etc/xinetd.d/x11vnc totally, and commented out this line in /etc/gdm/Init/Default (this is different from that mentioned on the link, which is /etc/X11/gdm/Init/Default): /usr/bin/x11vnc -rfbauth /etc/x11vnc.pass -o /tmp/x11vnc.log -forever -bg -rfbport 5900 However, when I restart the server, I can still use vncviewer to connect to the vnc server, why is that? Is it possible that the hacker installed a phantom daemon to start a vnc server without being detected? it sounds like a scary version...
