: Peter Hutnick <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> : That's a good call. I guess What I'd really want to do is only accept : mouse and keyboard from localhost (or some other single host) and : allow multiple "view only machines." Well, let's see here... so you start Xvnc with -nevershared and -dontdisconnect, maybe -localhost, connect to it (which locks everybody else out of that rfb server) then start x0rfbserver as an X client of that Xvnc, and set it to disable remote keyboard and pointer. A horrible kludge with the sole virtue that I think it would work (though I admit I haven't tried it; it just sprung to mind as a possibility), and it uses on off-the-shelf components. Or, of course, just run x0rfbserver on the X server that's managing the physical display...
