1 x11vnc allows to view remotely and interact with real X displays
2 (i.e. a display corresponding to a physical monitor, keyboard, and mouse)
3 with any VNC viewer.
4 In this way it plays the role for Unix/X11 that WinVNC plays for Windows.
5
6 It has built-in SSL/TLS encryption and 2048 bit RSA authentication,
7 including VeNCrypt support; UNIX account and password login support;
8 server-side scaling; single port HTTPS/HTTP+VNC; Zeroconf service advertising;
9 and TightVNC and UltraVNC file-transfer.
10 It has also been extended to work with non-X devices:
11 natively on Mac OS X Aqua/Quartz, webcams and TV tuner capture devices,
12 and embedded Linux systems such as Qtopia Core.
13 Full IPv6 support is provided.
14
15 It also provides an encrypted Terminal Services mode (-create, -svc, or -xdmsvc options)
16 based on Unix usernames and Unix passwords where the user does not need to memorize
17 his VNC display/port number.
18 Normally a virtual X session (Xvfb) is created for each user, but it also works with
19 X sessions on physical hardware. See the tsvnc terminal services mode of the SSVNC viewer
20 for one way to take advantage of this mode.
