Public bug reported: Is there any way to configure a Gutsy desktop so people can connect to its screen even if no one is logged in on the screen?
I can't do this with vncviewer; it only lets me connect if someone who permits remote desktop access is already logged in locally. I need some way of capturing control of the screen when it's showing a login prompt, in order to do remote management of a host that might need to be rebooted (or might reboot on its own). I can SSH into the box, of course, but I would also like to be able to use the GUI. ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Can't use vncviewer if not logged in https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/157646 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
