Uses the password found in ~/.vnc/passwd, where the password is obscured with a fixed key in a VNC compatible format, or alternatively in ~/.vnc/passwdfile, where the first line of the file contains the password. Note: The password will only encrypt the login process itself. SLIM # x11vnc -display :0 -auth /var/run/th To do this, add the following line into /usr/share/sddm/scripts/Xsetup: If the above method does not work, an alternative is to start x11vnc when SDDM runs the Xsetup script. service file will require a trick to evaluate the find command as shown here. # x11vnc -display :0 -auth $(find /var/run/sddm/ -type f)Įmbedding this into a systemd. SDDM uses an unpredictable UUID for the auth file therefore one needs to: LXDM # x11vnc -display :0 -auth /var/run/lxdm/lxdm-\:0.auth # x11vnc -display :0 -auth /var/run/lightdm/root/\:0 # x11vnc -display :0 -auth /run/user/120/gdm/Xauthority Example for user 120 (gdm), used for login screen. # x11vnc -display :0 -auth /var/lib/gdm/:0.Xauth You are therefore advised to uncomment #WaylandEnable=false setting in /etc/gdm/nf in order to proceed. Xauthority is not created, and x11vnc fails to start). The following instructions, however, only apply when using Xorg (else. Note: Newer GDM packages ship with Xwayland as the default display server backend. Replace the second ExecStart with the command you run interactively. etc/systemd/system//nf ĮxecStart=/usr/bin/x11vnc -many -display :0 -no6 -rfbport 5901 -auth /var/run/lightdm/root/:0 To run x11vnc when system boots, edit rvice. Server_args = -inetd -o /var/log/x11vnc.log -noxdamage -display :0 -auth guessĪfter reloading rvice, X11vnc will start once a client connects to port 5900. X11vnc can be run using a xinetd service, which only starts X11vnc once a user connects.Ĭreate an xinetd service entry for x11vnc, for example: Where user is the username of the user who is running the X server. # x11vnc -display :0 -auth /home/ user/.Xauthority If that fails, you may have to run instead (as root): Start X $ x11vnc -display :0 -auth ~/.Xauthority Generally, assigning an X authority file requires running x11vnc as root. This is accomplished by using the -auth argument followed by the appropriate file, which will depend on how your X server was started. You may set an X authority file for the VNC server. Also note that /var/log/x11vnc.log needs to be created manually and its ownership needs to match that of the user who will run it. Note: The password "PASSWORD" above is not secured anyone who can run ps on the machine will see it. X11vnc -wait 50 -noxdamage -passwd PASSWORD -display :0 -forever -o /var/log/x11vnc.log -bg Then, run the following command, all available options are explained in x11vnc(1).Īnother option is to place the x11vnc command line in a script which is called at login, for example: You may need to set up X to run headless too. 4.3 Change x11vnc password in each bootįirst, start X either by startx or through a display manager.4.2 Run x11vnc "system-wide" in (SDDM and Plasma).4.1 Run x11vnc "system-wide" in (GDM and GNOME Shell).
