Re: [PLUG] run x11vnc at startup

["John BORIS" <jboris@adphila.org>]

Ron,
I am not a LINUX guru but struggled getting VNC to start up at boot
time on my Ubuntu 10.04 LTS server. Here is my startup line in
/etc/rc.local

 su - username -c "cd /home/usernames && vncserver -geometry 1024x768
-depth 24 :1" & 

Then in my home directory I setup the vnc session. I set the password
for the session so you are prompted for the password when the vnc viewer
connects. Not sure if this will point you in the right direction.
