[rhel6-branch] VNC does not support runtime SecurityTypes changes (#670832)

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



New XVNC does not support changing of SecurityTypes when
it is already running with vncconfig. So we have to solve
all the password stuff first, and then run the XVNC with
either None or VncAuth.
