So you mean actions like 'Send Ctrl-Alt-Del' on Linux will still reboot the system? Even from the 'view-only' console on :2 ?
Its really a 'read-write' session showing a read-only viewer. If you managed to pop any tools onto that screen, they would be read-write for you :-) D. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of Wayne Throop Sent: Monday, 10 June 2002 3:57 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: view only java applet :: Right now, I am depending on the cooperation of whomever I give the :: "password" to for them to share and "view-only" my desktop.

Alternatively, set up two different rfb passwd files, and Xvnc :1 -rfbauth key1 & Xvnc :2 -rfbauth key2 & env DISPLAY=:2 vncviewer :1 -fullscreen -viewonly -passwd key1 & env DISPLAY=:1 twm & ( Decorate with additional options to taste, such as -depth, -geometry, etc ) If you want other folks to be able to view only, you give them the password for :2 only. You keep the password for :1 to yourself. (And, of course, make sure nobody but you can read the files key1 and key2.) Very simple. Very easy.
