+ SSL Certificates. The debugCerts=yes applet parameter aids

+ desktop service (e.g. user-creation, PHP, SQL, specialized desktop
+ application, etc.) More info [132]here. There is also an optional
+ 'port redirection' mode that allows redirection to other SSL
+ enabled VNC servers running inside the firewall.
+ * The [133]Xdummy wrapper script for Xorg's dummy driver is updated
and no longer requires being run as root. New service options are
provided to select Xdummy over Xvfb as the virtual X server to be
created.
+ * The "%" unix password verification tricks for the [134]-unixpw

+ new feature.

+
+ Use Ctrl-C to stop this program.
+
+ You can also set env. vars INET6TO4_LOOP=1 or INET6TO4_LOOP=BG

+ Also set INET6TO4_VERBOSE to verbosity level and INET6TO4_WAITTIME
+ and INET6TO4_PIDFILE (see below.)

+# An example cgi script to provide multi-user web access to x11vnc
+# desktops. This script should/must be served by an HTTPS webserver,
+# otherwise the unix and vnc passwords are sent over the network
+# unencrypted (see below to disable)
+#
+# Note that the x11vnc -create virtual desktop service used below requires
+# that you install the 'Xvfb' program.
+#
+# You should put this script in, say, a cgi-bin directory.
+#
+# You will *also* need to copy the x11vnc classes/ssl/UltraViewerSSL.jar
+# file to the document root: /UltraViewerSSL.jar (or change the html
+# at bottom.)
+#
+# Each x11vnc server created for a login will listen on its own port (see
+# below for port selection schemes.) Your firewall must let in these ports.
+# It is difficult and not as reliable to do all of this through a single port;
+# however, see the fixed port scheme find_free_port = 'fixed:5900' below.
+#
+# Note there are two SSL certificates involved that the user may be
+# asked to inspect: apache's SSL cert and x11vnc's SSL cert. This may
+# confuse the user.
+#
+# This script provides one example on how to provide the service. You can
+# customize to meet your needs, e.g. switch to php, newer modules,
+# different authentication, SQL database, etc. If you plan to use it
+# in production, please examine all security aspects of it carefully;
+# read the comments in the script for more info.

+"%-" or "%stdin" means read one line from stdin.
+"%env" means it is in $UNIXPW env var. A leading
+"%/" or "%." means read the first line from the
+filename that follows after the % character. % by
+itself means prompt for the username and password.
+Otherwise: %user:pass E.g. \fB-unixpw\fR %fred:swordfish
+For the other cases user:pass is read from the indicated
+source. If the password is correct 'Y user' is printed
+and the program exit code is 0. If the password is
+incorrect it prints 'N user' and the exit code is 1.
+If there is some other error the exit code is 2.
+This feature enables x11vnc to be a general unix user
+password checking tool; it could be used from scripts
+or other programs. These % password checks also apply
+to the \fB-unixpw_nis\fR and \fB-unixpw_cmd\fR options.
+.IP
+For the % password check, if the env. var. UNIXPW_CMD
+is set to a command then it is run as the user (assuming
+the password is correct.) The output of the command is
+not printed, the program or script must manage that by
+some other means. The exit code of x11vnc will depend
+on the exit code of the command that is run.
