See below for per-user options that - can be applied. - - A familiar "login:" and "Password:" dialog is - presented to the user on a black screen inside the - vncviewer. The connection is dropped if the user fails - to supply the correct password in 3 tries or does not - send one before a 25 second timeout.

Evidently you will be using a - different method to encrypt the data between the - vncviewer and x11vnc: perhaps ssh(1) or an IPSEC VPN. - - Note that use of -localhost with ssh(1) is roughly - the same as requiring a Unix user login (since a Unix - password or the user's public key authentication is - used by sshd on the machine where x11vnc runs and only - local connections from that machine are accepted) - - Set UNIXPW_DISABLE_LOCALHOST=1 to disable the -localhost - requirement in Method 2).

If you override this via env. var, be - sure to also use encryption from the viewer to inetd. - Tip: you can also have your own stunnel spawn x11vnc - in -inetd mode (thereby bypassing inetd). See the FAQ - for details. - - The user names in the comma separated [list] can have - per-user options after a ":", e.g. "fred:opts" - where "opts" is a "+" separated list of - "viewonly", "fullaccess", "input=XXXX", or - "deny", e.g. "karl,fred:viewonly,boss:input=M". - For "input=" it is the K,M,B,C described under -input. - - If a user in the list is "*" that means those - options apply to all users. It also means all users - are allowed to log in after supplying a valid password. - Use "deny" to explicitly deny some users if you use - "*" to set a global option. - - There are also some utilities for testing password - if [list] starts with the "%" character. See the - quick_pw() function in the source for details. - --unixpw_nis [list] As -unixpw above, however do not use su(1) but rather - use the traditional getpwnam(3) + crypt(3) method to - verify passwords instead. This requires that the - encrypted passwords be readable. Passwords stored - in /etc/shadow will be inaccessible unless x11vnc - is run as root. - - This is called "NIS" mode simply because in most - NIS setups the user encrypted passwords are accessible - (e.g. "ypcat passwd"). NIS is not required for this - mode to work (only that getpwnam(3) return the encrypted - password is required), but it is unlikely it will work - for any other modern environment. All of the -unixpw - options and contraints apply. - --ssl [pem] Use the openssl library (www.openssl.org) to provide a - built-in encrypted SSL tunnel between VNC viewers and - x11vnc. This requires libssl support to be compiled - into x11vnc at build time. If x11vnc is not built - with libssl support it will exit immediately when -ssl - is prescribed. - - [pem] is optional, use "-ssl /path/to/mycert.pem" - to specify a PEM certificate file to use to identify - and provide a key for this server. See openssl(1) for - more info about PEMs and the -sslGenCert option below. - - The connecting VNC viewer SSL tunnel can optionally - authenticate this server if they have the public - key part of the certificate (or a common certificate - authority, CA, is a more sophisicated way to verify - this server's cert, see -sslGenCA below). This is - used to prevent man-in-the-middle attacks. Otherwise, - if the VNC viewer accepts this server's key without - verification, at least the traffic is protected - from passive sniffing on the network (but NOT from - man-in-the-middle attacks). - - If [pem] is not supplied and the openssl(1) utility - command exists in PATH, then a temporary, self-signed - certificate will be generated for this session (this - may take 5-30 seconds on slow machines). If openssl(1) - cannot be used to generate a temporary certificate - x11vnc exits immediately. - - If successful in using openssl(1) to generate a - temporary certificate, the public part of it will be - displayed to stderr (e.g. one could copy it to the - client-side to provide authentication of the server to - VNC viewers.) See following paragraphs for how to save - keys to reuse when x11vnc is restarted. - - Set the env. var. X11VNC_SHOW_TMP_PEM=1 to have x11vnc - print out the entire certificate, including the PRIVATE - KEY part, to stderr. One could reuse this cert if saved - in a [pem] file. Similarly, set X11VNC_KEEP_TMP_PEM=1 - to not delete the temporary PEM file: the file name - will be printed to stderr (so one could move it to - a safe place for reuse). You will be prompted for a - passphrase for the private key. - - If [pem] is "SAVE" then the certificate will be saved - to the file ~/.vnc/certs/server.pem, or if that file - exists it will be used directly. Similarly, if [pem] - is "SAVE_PROMPT" the server.pem certificate will be - made based on your answers to its prompts for info such - as OrganizationalName, CommonName, etc. - - Use "SAVE-<string>" and "SAVE_PROMPT-<string>" - to refer to the file ~/.vnc/certs/server-<string>.pem - instead. E.g. "SAVE-charlie" will store to the file - ~/.vnc/certs/server-charlie.pem - - See -ssldir below to use a directory besides the - default ~/.vnc/certs - - Example: x11vnc -ssl SAVE -display :0 ... - - Reverse connections are disabled in -ssl mode because - there is no way to ensure that data channel will - be encrypted. Set X11VNC_SSL_ALLOW_REVERSE=1 to - override this. - - Your VNC viewer will also need to be able to connect - via SSL. See the discussion below under -stunnel and - the FAQ (ssl_vncviewer script) for how this might be - achieved. E.g. on Unix it is easy to write a shell - script that starts up stunnel and then vncviewer. - Also in the x11vnc source a SSL enabled Java VNC Viewer - applet is provided in the classes/ssl directory. - --ssldir [dir] Use [dir] as an alternate ssl certificate and key - management toplevel directory. The default is - ~/.vnc/certs - - This directory is used to store server and other - certificates and keys and also other materials. E.g. in - the simplest case, "-ssl SAVE" will store the x11vnc - server cert in [dir]/server.pem - - Use of alternate directories via -ssldir allows you to - manage multiple VNC Certificate Authority (CA) keys. - Another use is if ~/.vnc/cert is on an NFS share you - might want your certificates and keys to be on a local - filesystem to prevent network snooping (for example - -ssldir /var/lib/x11vnc-certs). - - -ssldir affects nearly all of the other -ssl* options, - e.g. -ssl SAVE, -sslGenCert, etc.. - --sslverify [path] For either of the -ssl or -stunnel modes, use [path] - to provide certificates to authenticate incoming VNC - *Client* connections (normally only the server is - authenticated in SSL.) This can be used as a method - to replace standard password authentication of clients. - - If [path] is a directory it contains the client (or CA) - certificates in separate files. If [path] is a file, - it contains multiple certificates. See special tokens - below. These correspond to the "CApath = dir" and - "CAfile = file" stunnel options. See the stunnel(8) - manpage for details. - - Examples: - x11vnc -ssl -sslverify ~/my.pem - x11vnc -ssl -sslverify ~/my_pem_dir/ - - Note that if [path] is a directory, it must contain - the certs in separate files named like <HASH>.0, where - the value of <HASH> is found by running the command - "openssl x509 -hash -noout -in file.crt". Evidently - one uses <HASH>.1 if there is a collision... - - The the key-management utility "-sslCertInfo HASHON" - and "-sslCertInfo HASHOFF" will create/delete these - hashes for you automatically (via symlink) in the HASH - subdirs it manages. Then you can point -sslverify to - the HASH subdir. - - Special tokens: in -ssl mode, if [path] is not a file or - a directory, it is taken as a comma separated list of - tokens that are interpreted as follows: - - If a token is "CA" that means load the CA/cacert.pem - file from the ssl directory. If a token is "clients" - then all the files clients/*.crt in the ssl directory - are loaded. Otherwise the file clients/token.crt - is attempted to be loaded. As a kludge, use a token - like ../server-foo to load a server cert if you find - that necessary. - - Use -ssldir to use a directory different from the - ~/.vnc/certs default. - - Note that if the "CA" cert is loaded you do not need - to load any of the certs that have been signed by it. - You will need to load any additional self-signed certs - however. - - Examples: - x11vnc -ssl -sslverify CA - x11vnc -ssl -sslverify self:fred,self:jim - x11vnc -ssl -sslverify CA,clients - - Usually "-sslverify CA" is the most effective. - See the -sslGenCA and -sslGenCert options below for - how to set up and manage the CA framework. - - - - NOTE: the following utilities, -sslGenCA, -sslGenCert, - -sslEncKey, and -sslCertInfo are provided for - completeness, but for casual usage they are overkill. - - They provide VNC Certificate Authority (CA) key creation - and server / client key generation and signing. So they - provide a basic Public Key management framework for - VNC-ing with x11vnc. (note that they require openssl(1) - be installed on the system) - - However, the simplest usage mode (where x11vnc - automatically generates its own, self-signed, temporary - key and the VNC viewers always accept it, e.g. accepting - via a dialog box) is probably safe enough for most - scenarios. CA management is not needed. - - To protect against Man-In-The-Middle attacks the - simplest mode can be improved by using "-ssl SAVE" - to have x11vnc create a longer term self-signed - certificate, and then (safely) copy the corresponding - public key cert to the desired client machines (care - must be taken the private key part is not stolen; - you will be prompted for a passphrase). - - So keep in mind no CA key creation or management - (-sslGenCA and -sslGenCert) is needed for either of - the above two common usage modes. - - One might want to use -sslGenCA and -sslGenCert - if you had a large number of VNC client and server - workstations. That way the administrator could generate - a single CA key with -sslGenCA and distribute its - certificate part to all of the workstations. - - Next, he could create signed VNC server keys - (-sslGenCert server ...) for each workstation or user - that then x11vnc would use to authenticate itself to - any VNC client that has the CA cert. - - Optionally, the admin could also make it so the - VNC clients themselves are authenticated to x11vnc - (-sslGenCert client ...) For this -sslverify would be - pointed to the CA cert (and/or self-signed certs). - - x11vnc will be able to use all of these cert and - key files. On the VNC client side, they will need to - be "imported" somehow. Web browsers have "Manage - Certificates" actions as does the Java applet plugin - Control Panel. stunnel can also use these files (see - the ssl_vncviewer example script in the FAQ.) - --sslGenCA [dir] Generate your own Certificate Authority private key, - certificate, and other files in directory [dir]. - - If [dir] is not supplied, a -ssldir setting is used, - or otherwise ~/.vnc/certs is used. - - This command also creates directories where server and - client certs and keys will be stored. The openssl(1) - program must be installed on the system and available - in PATH. - - After the CA files and directories are created the - command exits; the VNC server is not run. - - You will be prompted for information to put into the CA - certificate. The info does not have to be accurate just - as long as clients accept the cert for VNC connections. - You will also need to supply a passphrase of at least - 4 characters for the CA private key. - - Once you have generated the CA you can distribute - its certificate part, [dir]/CA/cacert.pem, to other - workstations where VNC viewers will be run. One will - need to "import" this certicate in the applications, - e.g. Web browser, Java applet plugin, stunnel, etc. - Next, you can create and sign keys using the CA with - the -sslGenCert option below. - - Examples: - x11vnc -sslGenCA - x11vnc -sslGenCA ~/myCAdir - x11vnc -ssldir ~/myCAdir -sslGenCA - - (the last two lines are equivalent) - --sslGenCert type name Generate a VNC server or client certificate and private - key pair signed by the CA created previously with - -sslGenCA. The openssl(1) program must be installed - on the system and available in PATH. - - After the Certificate is generated the command exits; - the VNC server is not run. - - The type of key to be generated is the string "type". - It is either "server" (i.e. for use by x11vnc) or - "client" (for a VNC viewer). Note that typically - only "server" is used: the VNC clients authenticate - themselves by a non-public-key method (e.g. VNC or - unix password). "type" is required. - - An arbitrary default name you want to associate with - the key is supplied by the "name" string. You can - change it at the various prompts when creating the key. - "name" is optional. - - If name is left blank for clients keys then "nobody" - is used. If left blank for server keys, then the - primary server key: "server.pem" is created (this - is the saved one referenced by "-ssl SAVE" when the - server is started) - - If "name" begins with the string "self:" then - a self-signed certificate is created instead of one - signed by your CA key. - - If "name" begins with the string "req:" then only a - key (.key) and a certificate signing *request* (.req) - are generated. You can then send the .req file to - an external CA (even a professional one, e.g. Thawte) - and then combine the .key and the received cert into - the .pem file with the same basename. - - The distinction between "server" and "client" is - simply the choice of output filenames and sub-directory. - This makes it so the -ssl SAVE-name option can easily - pick up the x11vnc PEM file this option generates. - And similarly makes it easy for the -sslverify option - to pick up your client certs. - - There is nothing special about the filename or directory - location of either the "server" and "client" certs. - You can rename the files or move them to wherever - you like. - - Precede this option with -ssldir [dir] to use a - directory other than the default ~/.vnc/certs You will - need to run -sslGenCA on that directory first before - doing any -sslGenCert key creation. - - Note you cannot recreate a cert with exactly the same - distiguished name (DN) as an existing one. To do so, - you will need to edit the [dir]/CA/index.txt file to - delete the line. - - Similar to -sslGenCA, you will be prompted to fill - in some information that will be recorded in the - certificate when it is created. Tip: if you know - the fully-quailified hostname other people will be - connecting to you can use that as the CommonName "CN" - to avoid some applications (e.g. web browsers and java - plugin) complaining it does not match the hostname. - - You will also need to supply the CA private key - passphrase to unlock the private key created from - -sslGenCA. This private key is used to sign the server - or client certicate. - - The "server" certs can be used by x11vnc directly by - pointing to them via the -ssl [pem] option. The default - file will be ~/.vnc/certs/server.pem. This one would - be used by simply typing -ssl SAVE. The pem file - contains both the certificate and the private key. - server.crt file contains the cert only. - - The "client" cert + private key file will need - to be copied and imported into the VNC viewer - side applications (Web browser, Java plugin, - stunnel, etc.) Once that is done you can delete the - "client" private key file on this machine since - it is only needed on the VNC viewer side. The, - e.g. ~/.vnc/certs/clients/<name>.pem contains both - the cert and private key. The <name>.crt contains the - certificate only. - - NOTE: It is very important to know one should always - generate new keys with a passphrase. Otherwise if an - untrusted user steals the key file he could use it to - masquerade as the x11vnc server (or VNC viewer client). - You will be prompted whether to encrypt the key with - a passphrase or not. It is recommended that you do. - One inconvenience to a passphrase is that it must - be suppled every time x11vnc or the client app is - started up. - - Examples: - - x11vnc -sslGenCert server - x11vnc -ssl SAVE -display :0 ... - - and then on viewer using ssl_vncviewer stunnel wrapper - (see the FAQ): - ssl_vncviewer -verify ./cacert.crt hostname:0 - - (this assumes the cacert.crt cert from -sslGenCA - was safely copied to the VNC viewer machine where - ssl_vncviewer is run) - - Example using a name: - - x11vnc -sslGenCert server charlie - x11vnc -ssl SAVE-charlie -display :0 ... - - Example for a client certificate (rarely used): - - x11vnc -sslGenCert client roger - scp ~/.vnc/certs/clients/roger.pem somehost:. - rm ~/.vnc/certs/clients/roger.pem - - x11vnc is then started with the the option -sslverify - ~/.vnc/certs/clients/roger.crt (or simply -sslverify - roger), and on the viewer user on somehost could do - for example: - - ssl_vncviewer -mycert ./roger.pem hostname:0 - --sslEncKey [pem] Utility to encrypt an existing PEM file with a - passphrase you supply when prompted. For that key to be - used (e.g. by x11vnc) the passphrase must be supplied - each time. - - The "SAVE" notation described under -ssl applies as - well. (precede this option with -ssldir [dir] to refer - a directory besides the default ~/.vnc/certs) - - The openssl(1) program must be installed on the system - and available in PATH. After the Key file is encrypted - the command exits; the VNC server is not run. - - Examples: - x11vnc -sslEncKey /path/to/foo.pem - x11vnc -sslEncKey SAVE - x11vnc -sslEncKey SAVE-charlie - --sslCertInfo [pem] Prints out information about an existing PEM file. - In addition the public certificate is also printed. - The openssl(1) program must be in PATH. Basically the - command "openssl x509 -text" is run on the pem. - - The "SAVE" notation described under -ssl applies - as well. - - Using "LIST" will give a list of all certs being - managed (in the ~/.vnc/certs dir, use -ssldir to refer - to another dir). "ALL" will print out the info for - every managed key (this can be very long). Giving a - client or server cert shortname will also try a lookup - (e.g. -sslCertInfo charlie). Use "LISTL" or "LL" - for a long (ls -l style) listing. - - Using "HASHON" will create subdirs [dir]/HASH and - [dir]/HASH with OpenSSL hash filenames (e.g. 0d5fbbf1.0) - symlinks pointing up to the corresponding *.crt file. - ([dir] is ~/.vnc/certs or one given by -ssldir.) - This is a useful way for other OpenSSL applications - (e.g. stunnel) to access all of the certs without - having to concatenate them. x11vnc will not use them - unless you specifically reference them. "HASHOFF" - removes these HASH subdirs. - - The LIST, LISTL, LL, ALL, HASHON, HASHOFF words can - also be lowercase, e.g. "list". - --sslDelCert [pem] Prompts you to delete all .crt .pem .key .req files - associated with [pem]. "SAVE" and lookups as in - -sslCertInfo apply as well. - - --stunnel [pem] Use the stunnel(8) (www.stunnel.org) to provide an - encrypted SSL tunnel between viewers and x11vnc. - - This external tunnel method was implemented prior to the - integrated -ssl encryption described above. It still - works well. This requires stunnel to be installed - on the system and available via PATH (n.b. stunnel is - often installed in sbin directories). Version 4.x of - stunnel is assumed (but see -stunnel3 below.) - - [pem] is optional, use "-stunnel /path/to/stunnel.pem" - to specify a PEM certificate file to pass to stunnel. - Whether one is needed or not depends on your stunnel - configuration. stunnel often generates one at install - time. See the stunnel documentation for details. - - stunnel is started up as a child process of x11vnc and - any SSL connections stunnel receives are decrypted and - sent to x11vnc over a local socket. The strings - "The SSL VNC desktop is ..." and "SSLPORT=..." - are printed out at startup to indicate this. - - The -localhost option is enforced by default - to avoid people routing around the SSL channel. - Set STUNNEL_DISABLE_LOCALHOST=1 before starting x11vnc - to disable the requirement. - - Your VNC viewer will also need to be able to connect via - SSL. Unfortunately not too many do this. UltraVNC has - an encryption plugin but it does not seem to be SSL. - - Also, in the x11vnc distribution, a patched TightVNC - Java applet is provided in classes/ssl that does SSL - connections (only). - - It is also not too difficult to set up an stunnel or - other SSL tunnel on the viewer side. A simple example - on Unix using stunnel 3.x is: - - % stunnel -c -d localhost:5901 -r remotehost:5900 - % vncviewer localhost:1 - - For Windows, stunnel has been ported to it and there - are probably other such tools available. See the FAQ - for more examples. - --stunnel3 [pem] Use version 3.x stunnel command line syntax instead of - version 4.x - --https [port] Choose a separate HTTPS port (-ssl mode only). - - In -ssl mode, it turns out you can use the - single VNC port (e.g. 5900) for both VNC and HTTPS - connections. (HTTPS is used to retrieve a SSL-aware - VncViewer.jar applet that is provided with x11vnc). - Since both use SSL the implementation was extended to - detect if HTTP traffic (i.e. GET) is taking place and - handle it accordingly. The URL would be, e.g.: - - https://mymachine.org:5900/ - - This is convenient for firewalls, etc, because only one - port needs to be allowed in. However, this heuristic - adds a few seconds delay to each connection and can be - unreliable (especially if the user takes much time to - ponder the Certificate dialogs in his browser, Java VM, - or VNC Viewer applet. That's right 3 separate "Are - you sure you want to connect" dialogs!) - - So use the -https option to provide a separate, more - reliable HTTPS port that x11vnc will listen on. If - [port] is not provided (or is 0), one is autoselected. - The URL to use is printed out at startup. - - The SSL Java applet directory is specified via the - -httpdir option. If not supplied it will try to guess - the directory as though the -http option was supplied. - -usepw If no other password method was supplied on the command line, first look for ~/.vnc/passwd and if found use it with -rfbauth; next, look for ~/.vnc/passwdfile and @@ -8039,9 +7547,6 @@ Options: the -rfbauth option.
