Roel, I think the product you are looking for is called ITALC, it lets you
monitor the machines, take snapshots etc, wonderful tool.  We use it in
Indiana on our 20,000+ desktops.

Thanks

Forrest

Hi everybody,

Short story: I am deploying KUbuntu in our company on 100+ systems. And
it is necessary that we can watch along with our clients @ any time, for
coaching and monitoring purposes.

I have used the KDE kiosk tool to lock KDE down and enabled KRFB. We can
watch along, everything works great.
Just one thing I can not configure: I have to disable the warning that
pops up when somebody connects to the system with VNC.

Is this possible somehow using an option, or do I have to change source
code?

Thanks in advance!

Hello. VNC implementation from http://realvnc.com has a module for
X-windows system. After installnig it you have to include these line in
/etc/X11/xorg.conf:
Section "Module"
	...
	Load                "vnc"
	...
EndSection

and:

Section "Screen"
	...
	Option  "SecurityTypes" "VncAuth"
	Option  "UserPasswdVerifier" "VncAuth"
	Option  "PasswordFile" "/etc/vncpasswd"
	...
EndSection

There is one miss.. You can set only one password in /etc/vncpasswd.
Hope that helps.
