The vncserver command picks an unused display number when none is given
and prints out its choice. See man 1 vncserver for more options.
When running vncviewer for the rst time, it asks for a password for full access to
the session. If needed, you can also provide a password for view-only access to the
session.
The password(s) you are providing here are also used for future sessions started by the
same user. They can be changed with the vncpasswd command.
IMPORTANT: Security Considerations
Make sure to use strong passwords of signicant length (eight or more charac-
ters). Do not share these passwords.
VNC connections are unencrypted, so people who can sniff the network(s)
between the two machines can read the password when it gets transferred at
the beginning of a session.
To terminate the session shut down the desktop environment that runs inside the VNC
session from the VNC viewer as you would shut it down if it was a regular local X
session.
If you prefer to manually terminate a session, open a shell on the VNC server and make
sure you are logged in as the user that owns the VNC session you want to terminate.
Run the following command to terminate the session that runs on display :1:
vncserver -kill :1
5.2.1 Connecting to a Persistent VNC
Session
To connect to a persistent VNC session, a VNC viewer must be installed. The standard
viewer on SUSE Linux products is vncviewer, provided by the package tightvnc.
You may also view a VNC session using your Web browser and a Java applet.
To start your VNC viewer and connect to display :1 of the VNC server, use the com-
mand
