vnc password hit from Retina
Hello,
I'm having an issue with VNC. Security at work says that they scanned my servers (Solaris, RHEL, SLES) and found that you don't need a password to access a VNC session. I have tested this and you can't login to the VNC session without a password. Can someone tell what the Retina scanner may be finding. I can't find the setting that would be the issue. I have not made any changes to the default vnc files.

Any help would be great.
