But to answer your question, vncservers file is a little different . . .
there are two type of lines:
1. contains a space-separated list of port and usernames separated by
colons, e.g.:
VNCSERVERS="92:gmatz 44:wsmith"
2. contains arguments to be supplied to vncserver, with port number acting
as an aray index, e.g.:
VNCSERVERARGS[92]="-geometry 1280x1024"
VNCSERVERARGS[44]="-geometry 1280x1024"
I was hoping to parse the vncserver config file using two different type of
record_lines, one for each of the line types . . .
thanks,
guy
