In regard to: Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] VNC Server?, Lonnie Cumberland said...:
Anyway, I just learned a little about "pgk" and am trying to see out I can install a VNC server so that I can connect to this box from another system tomorrow while I am at the office. To that end, I just tried: --------------------------- lonnie@openindiana:~$ pkg list | grep vnc desktop/remote-desktop/tigervnc 1.8.0-2018.0.0.2 i-- x11/server/xvnc 1.8.0-2018.0.0.2
I know based on the other responses that you have a VNC server working, but just for the benefit of the mailing list archives, the 'lightdm' GUI login is capable of listening for VNC connections and then spawning Xvnc to handle them. You need only enable the VNC config in /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf. Because it's lightdm that's spawning Xvnc, it handles the authentication.
