This question has been asked before in 2009: Jeff Kowalczyk Thu, 17 Sep 2009 14:20:27 -0700
(Begin quote) Tightvnc-1.3.10 prompted for a password in the terminal from which it was started. When using a -via ssh tunnel, both password prompts conveniently occurred in the same terminal. Now that I have switched to tigervnc-1.0, it raises a password prompt window in X. Can we have an option to use the terminal password prompt? (End quote) I second this request. The current X based prompt is not keyboard accessible. It forces a user to click in the input box before typing the password. If directing the password prompt back to the terminal is not technically feasible, is it possible to have the X input automatically selected without requiring a mouse click? This would provide a similar convenience. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ WhatsUp Gold - Download Free Network Management Software The most intuitive, comprehensive, and cost-effective network management toolset available today.
