Operating Systems Linux Red Hat Automatic enable for screen lock in vnc Post 302551987 by dude2cool on Thursday 1st of September 2011 09:47:53 AM

hmm not sure if it can be done any other way. Maybe someone else on the forum can advice.

The only other thing I can recommend is try a different vnc client. See if it gives you more options to control your display etc.

Code:

and the full screen setting I was talking about, look at the below URL. Basically you press f8 when connected through VNC and you get a menu to go to full screen mode.

NAME
vncpasswd - change a VNC password SYNOPSIS
vncpasswd [passwd-file] DESCRIPTION
vncpasswd allows you to set the password used to access VNC desktops. It stores an obfuscated version of the password in the given file (default $HOME/.vnc/passwd). The vncserver script runs vncpasswd the first time you start a VNC desktop, and invokes Xvnc with the appro- priate -rfbauth option. vncviewer can also be given a password file to use via the -passwd option. The password must be at least six characters long, and only the first eight characters are significant. Note that the stored password is not encrypted securely - anyone who has access to this file can trivially find out the plaintext password, so vncpasswd always sets appro- priate permissions (read and write only by the owner). However, when accessing a VNC desktop a challenge-response mechanism is used over the wire making it hard for anyone to crack the password simply by snooping on the network. FILES
$HOME/.vnc/passwd Default location of the VNC password file. SEE ALSO
