How do I use x11vnc?

Start a x11vncserver with:

fgtest02@balz:~$ x11vnc

You can also start it with a password. Replace USERNAME with your own username.

fgtest02@balz:~$ x11vnc -rfbauth /home/USERNAME/.vnc/passwd

At the end you should get following message:

The VNC desktop is:      balz:0
PORT=5900

If you don't have a password file you can create one with:

fgtest02@balz:~$ x11vnc -storepasswd
Enter VNC password:
Verify password:
Write password to /home/fgtest02/.vnc/passwd?  [y]/n y
Password written to: /home/fgtest02/.vnc/passwd

Connect with VNC Viewer

After setting everything up you can connect to it with the program VNC Viewer
