arm ... thx. The last time I talked to someone about this (some time ago, I admit), I was told that there's one severe drawback: if you remotely unlock your x11vnc session, anybody sitting at the screen where the X session was initially started will be able to use your session just like you would... that's not something I would want to do (and I'd question whether any policy at Sun would view this with other than with extreme scepticism).
