VNC Viewer - Authorizing Control of Desktop
Posted by sefarlow on Mon 8 Jun 2009 at 15:24
I am accessing my Debian Lenny server from a laptop running MS Vista. VNCViewer (realvnc) loads up fine, but I have to walk to the Debian machine and click "Allow" on a pop up window that says a user is trying to control the desktop and has 2 buttons - ALLOW REFUSE. Once I click ALLOW the desktop shows up on my laptop fine. What do I need to do on the Debian machine to allow me to connect via VNCViewer without having to click ALLOW on it every time I want to connect?

You should be able to run "vino-preferences" from the terminal to get the preferences. Otherwise its located in the system menu.
