Knoppix: autostart vnc server

Question

how can I autostart vnc server on my knoppix distro ?

Answer 1

Create a file called ~/.config/autostart/xvnc.desktop.

Place within it this text:

[Desktop Entry]
Name=XVNC Server
Exec=/usr/local/bin/xvnc.sh
Icon=
Type=Application

---

Now su to root and do the following.

Create a file called /usr/local/bin/xvnc.sh and place within it the following text:

#!/bin/bash
xhost +
x11vnc -display :0 -forever -passwd "foobar" &

And run chmod +x /usr/local/bin/xvnc/sh.

Exit from root.

---

This will allow connections as long as the server is running, and access to be granted by the password "foobar" as LXDE is started.
