.SH NAME
|
|
x11vnc - allow VNC connections to real X11 displays
|
|
version: 0.6.3pre, lastmod: 2004-08-15
|
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
.B x11vnc
|
|
[OPTION]...
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
.PP
|
|
Typical usage is:
|
|
.IP
|
|
Run this command in a shell on the remote machine "far-host"
|
|
with X session you wish to view:
|
|
.IP
|
|
x11vnc -display :0
|
|
.IP
|
|
Then run this in another window on the machine you are sitting at:
|
|
.IP
|
|
vncviewer far-host:0
|
|
.PP
|
|
Once x11vnc establishes connections with the X11 server and starts
|
|
listening as a VNC server it will print out a string: PORT=XXXX where
|
|
XXXX is typically 5900 (the default VNC port). One would next run something
|
|
like this on the local machine: "vncviewer host:N" where N is XXXX - 5900,
|
|
i.e. usually "vncviewer host:0"
|
|
.PP
|
|
By default x11vnc will not allow the screen to be shared and it will
|
|
exit as soon as a client disconnects. See \fB-shared\fR and \fB-forever\fR below
|
|
to override these protections.
|
|
.PP
|
|
For additional info see: http://www.karlrunge.com/x11vnc/
|
|
and http://www.karlrunge.com/x11vnc/#faq
|
|
.PP
|
|
Rudimentary config file support: if the file $HOME/.x11vncrc exists then each
|
|
line in it is treated as a single command line option. Disable with \fB-norc.\fR
|
|
For each option name, the leading character "-" is not required. E.g. a
|
|
line that is either "nap" or "-nap" may be used and are equivalent.
|
|
Likewise "wait 100" or "-wait 100" are acceptable and equivalent lines.
|
|
The "#" character comments out to the end of the line in the usual way.
|
|
Leading and trailing whitespace is trimmed off. Lines may be continued with
|
|
a "\\" as the last character of a line (it becomes a space character).
|
|
.PP
|
|
.SH OPTIONS
|
|
|
|
.PP
|
|
\fB-display\fR \fIdisp\fR
|
|
.IP
|
|
X11 server display to connect to, usually :0. The X
|
|
server process must be running on same machine and
|
|
support MIT-SHM. Equivalent to setting the DISPLAY
|
|
environment variable to \fIdisp\fR.
|
|
.PP
|
|
\fB-auth\fR \fIfile\fR
|
|
.IP
|
|
Set the X authority file to be \fIfile\fR, equivalent to
|
|
setting the XAUTHORITY environment varirable to \fIfile\fR
|
|
before startup. See
|
|
.IR Xsecurity (7)
|
|
,
|
|
.IR xauth (1)
|
|
man pages.
|
|
.PP
|
|
\fB-id\fR \fIwindowid\fR
|
|
.IP
|
|
Show the window corresponding to \fIwindowid\fR not the
|
|
entire display. Warning: bugs! new toplevels missed!...
|
|
.PP
|
|
\fB-sid\fR \fIwindowid\fR
|
|
.IP
|
|
As \fB-id,\fR but instead of using the window directly it
|
|
shifts a root view to it: shows saveUnders menus, etc,
|
|
although they will be clipped if they extend beyond
|
|
the window.
|
|
.PP
|
|
\fB-flashcmap\fR
|
|
.IP
|
|
In 8bpp indexed color, let the installed colormap flash
|
|
as the pointer moves from window to window (slow).
|
|
.PP
|
|
\fB-notruecolor\fR
|
|
.IP
|
|
For 8bpp displays, force indexed color (i.e. a colormap)
|
|
even if it looks like 8bpp TrueColor. (rare problem)
|
|
.PP
|
|
\fB-overlay\fR
|
|
.IP
|
|
Handle multiple depth visuals on one screen, e.g. 8+24
|
|
and 24+8 overlay visuals (the 32 bits per pixel are
|
|
packed with 8 for PseudoColor and 24 for TrueColor).
|
|
.IP
|
|
Currently \fB-overlay\fR only works on Solaris (it uses
|
|
XReadScreen(3X11)). There are still some problems with
|
|
surrounding-region painting for popup menus (but not
|
|
for the popup menu itself); a workaround is to disable
|
|
SaveUnders (pass \fB-su\fR to Xsun). Amusingly, if \fB-overlay\fR
|
|
is used with \fB-mouse,\fR the mouse cursor shape is correct.
|
|
.IP
|
|
Use \fB-overlay\fR as a workaround for situations like these:
|
|
Some legacy applications require the default visual
|
|
be 8bpp (8+24), or they will use 8bpp PseudoColor even
|
|
when the default visual is depth 24 TrueColor (24+8).
|
|
In these cases colors in some windows will be messed
|
|
up in x11vnc unless \fB-overlay\fR is used.
|
|
.IP
|
|
Under \fB-overlay,\fR performance will be somewhat degraded
|
|
due to the extra image transformations required.
|
|
For optimal performance do not use \fB-overlay,\fR but rather
|
|
configure the X server so that the default visual is
|
|
depth 24 TrueColor and have all apps use that visual.
|
|
.PP
|
|
\fB-visual\fR \fIn\fR
|
|
.IP
|
|
Experimental option: probably does not do what you
|
|
think. It simply *forces* the visual used for the
|
|
framebuffer; this may be a bad thing... It is useful for
|
|
testing and for some workarounds. n may be a decimal
|
|
number, or 0x hex. Run
|
|
.IR xdpyinfo (1)
|
|
for the values.
|
|
One may also use "TrueColor", etc. see <X11/X.h>
|
|
for a list. If the string ends in ":m" for better
|
|
or for worse the visual depth is forced to be m.
|
|
.PP
|
|
\fB-scale\fR \fIfraction\fR
|
|
.IP
|
|
Scale the framebuffer by factor \fIfraction\fR. Values
|
|
less than 1 shrink the fb. Note: image may not be sharp
|
|
and response may be slower. If \fIfraction\fR contains
|
|
a decimal point "." it is taken as a floating point
|
|
number, alternatively the notation "m/n" may be used
|
|
to denote fractions exactly, e.g. \fB-scale\fR 2/3.
|
|
.IP
|
|
Scaling Options: can be added after \fIfraction\fR via
|
|
":", to supply multiple ":" options use commas.
|
|
If you just want a quick, rough scaling without
|
|
blending, append ":nb" to \fIfraction\fR (e.g. \fB-scale\fR
|
|
1/3:nb). For compatibility with vncviewers the scaled
|
|
width is adjusted to be a multiple of 4, to disable
|
|
this use ":n4". More esoteric options: ":in" use
|
|
interpolation scheme even when shrinking, ":pad",
|
|
pad scaled width and height to be multiples of scaling
|
|
denominator (e.g. 3 for 2/3).
|
|
.PP
|
|
\fB-viewonly\fR
|
|
.IP
|
|
All VNC clients can only watch (default off).
|
|
.PP
|
|
\fB-shared\fR
|
|
.IP
|
|
VNC display is shared (default off).
|
|
.PP
|
|
\fB-once\fR
|
|
.IP
|
|
Exit after the first successfully connected viewer
|
|
disconnects, opposite of \fB-forever.\fR This is the Default.
|
|
.PP
|
|
\fB-forever\fR
|
|
.IP
|
|
Keep listening for more connections rather than exiting
|
|
as soon as the first client(s) disconnect. Same as \fB-many\fR
|
|
.PP
|
|
\fB-connect\fR \fIstring\fR
|
|
.IP
|
|
For use with "vncviewer -listen" reverse connections.
|
|
If \fIstring\fR has the form "host" or "host:port"
|
|
the connection is made once at startup. Use commas
|
|
for a list of host's and host:port's. If \fIstring\fR
|
|
contains "/" it is instead interpreted as a file to
|
|
periodically check for new hosts. The first line is
|
|
read and then the file is truncated.
|
|
.PP
|
|
\fB-vncconnect\fR
|
|
.IP
|
|
Monitor the VNC_CONNECT X property set by the standard
|
|
VNC program
|
|
.IR vncconnect (1)
|
|
. When the property is set
|
|
to host or host:port establish a reverse connection.
|
|
Using
|
|
.IR xprop (1)
|
|
instead of vncconnect may work, see FAQ.
|
|
.PP
|
|
\fB-inetd\fR
|
|
.IP
|
|
Launched by
|
|
.IR inetd (1)
|
|
: stdio instead of listening socket.
|
|
Note: if you are not redirecting stderr to a log file
|
|
(via shell 2> or \fB-o\fR option) you must also specify the
|
|
\fB-q\fR option.
|
|
.PP
|
|
\fB-allow\fR \fIaddr1[,addr2..]\fR
|
|
.IP
|
|
Only allow client connections from IP addresses matching
|
|
the comma separated list of numerical addresses.
|
|
Can be a prefix, e.g. "192.168.100." to match a
|
|
simple subnet, for more control build libvncserver
|
|
with libwrap support. If the list contains a "/"
|
|
it instead is a interpreted as a file containing
|
|
addresses or prefixes that is re-read each time a new
|
|
client connects. Lines can be commented out with the
|
|
"#" character in the usual way.
|
|
.PP
|
|
\fB-localhost\fR
|
|
.IP
|
|
Same as \fB-allow\fR 127.0.0.1
|
|
.PP
|
|
\fB-viewpasswd\fR \fIstring\fR
|
|
.IP
|
|
Supply a 2nd password for view-only logins. The \fB-passwd\fR
|
|
(full-access) password must also be supplied.
|
|
.PP
|
|
\fB-passwdfile\fR \fIfilename\fR
|
|
.IP
|
|
Specify libvncserver \fB-passwd\fR via the first line of
|
|
the file \fIfilename\fR instead of via command line.
|
|
If a second non blank line exists in the file it is
|
|
taken as a view-only password (i.e. \fB-viewpasswd)\fR Note:
|
|
this is a simple plaintext passwd, see also \fB-rfbauth\fR
|
|
and \fB-storepasswd\fR below.
|
|
.PP
|
|
\fB-storepasswd\fR \fIpass\fR \fIfile\fR
|
|
.IP
|
|
Store password \fIpass\fR as the VNC password in the
|
|
file \fIfile\fR. Once the password is stored the
|
|
program exits. Use the password via "-rfbauth file"
|
|
.PP
|
|
\fB-accept\fR \fIstring\fR
|
|
.IP
|
|
Run a command (possibly to prompt the user at the
|
|
X11 display) to decide whether an incoming client
|
|
should be allowed to connect or not. \fIstring\fR is
|
|
an external command run via
|
|
.IR system (3)
|
|
or some special
|
|
cases described below. Be sure to quote \fIstring\fR
|
|
if it contains spaces, etc. If the external command
|
|
returns 0 the client is accepted, otherwise the client
|
|
is rejected. See below for an extension to accept a
|
|
client view-only.
|
|
.IP
|
|
Environment: The RFB_CLIENT_IP environment variable will
|
|
be set to the incoming client IP number and the port
|
|
in RFB_CLIENT_PORT (or -1 if unavailable). Similarly,
|
|
RFB_SERVER_IP and RFB_SERVER_PORT (the x11vnc side
|
|
of the connection), are set to allow identification
|
|
of the tcp virtual circuit. The x11vnc process
|
|
id will be in RFB_X11VNC_PID, a client id number in
|
|
RFB_CLIENT_ID, and the number of other connected clients
|
|
in RFB_CLIENT_COUNT.
|
|
.IP
|
|
If \fIstring\fR is "popup" then a builtin popup window
|
|
is used. The popup will time out after 120 seconds,
|
|
use "popup:N" to modify the timeout to N seconds
|
|
(use 0 for no timeout)
|
|
.IP
|
|
If \fIstring\fR is "xmessage" then an
|
|
.IR xmessage (1)
|
|
invocation is used for the command.
|
|
.IP
|
|
Both "popup" and "xmessage" will present an option
|
|
for accepting the client "View-Only" (the client
|
|
can only watch). This option will not be presented if
|
|
\fB-viewonly\fR has been specified, in which case the entire
|
|
display is view only.
|
|
.IP
|
|
If the user supplied command is prefixed with something
|
|
like "yes:0,no:*,view:3 mycommand ..." then this
|
|
associates the numerical command return code with
|
|
the actions: accept, reject, and accept-view-only,
|
|
respectively. Use "*" instead of a number to indicate
|
|
the default action (in case the command returns an
|
|
unexpected value). E.g. "no:*" is a good choice.
|
|
.IP
|
|
Note that x11vnc blocks while the external command or
|
|
or popup is running (other clients may see no updates
|
|
during this period).
|
|
.IP
|
|
More \fB-accept\fR tricks: use "popupmouse" to only allow
|
|
mouse clicks in the builtin popup to be recognized.
|
|
Similarly use "popupkey" to only recognize keystroke
|
|
responses. All 3 of the popup keywords can be followed
|
|
by +N+M to supply a position for the popup window.
|
|
The default is to center the popup window.
|
|
.PP
|
|
\fB-gone\fR \fIstring\fR
|
|
.IP
|
|
As \fB-accept,\fR except to run a user supplied command when
|
|
a client goes away (disconnects). Unlike \fB-accept,\fR
|
|
the command return code is not interpreted by x11vnc.
|
|
.PP
|
|
\fB-noshm\fR
|
|
.IP
|
|
Do not use the MIT-SHM extension for the polling.
|
|
Remote displays can be polled this way: be careful this
|
|
can use large amounts of network bandwidth. This is
|
|
also of use if the local machine has a limited number
|
|
of shm segments and \fB-onetile\fR is not sufficient.
|
|
.PP
|
|
\fB-flipbyteorder\fR
|
|
.IP
|
|
Sometimes needed if remotely polled host has different
|
|
endianness. Ignored unless \fB-noshm\fR is set.
|
|
.PP
|
|
\fB-onetile\fR
|
|
.IP
|
|
Do not use the new copy_tiles() framebuffer mechanism,
|
|
just use 1 shm tile for polling. Same as \fB-old_copytile.\fR
|
|
Limits shm segments used to 3.
|
|
.PP
|
|
\fB-blackout\fR \fIstring\fR
|
|
.IP
|
|
Black out rectangles on the screen. \fIstring\fR is a
|
|
comma separated list of WxH+X+Y type geometries for
|
|
each rectangle.
|
|
.PP
|
|
\fB-xinerama\fR
|
|
.IP
|
|
If your screen is composed of multiple monitors
|
|
glued together via XINERAMA, and that screen is
|
|
non-rectangular this option will try to guess the areas
|
|
to black out (if your system has libXinerama).
|
|
.PP
|
|
\fB-o\fR \fIlogfile\fR
|
|
.IP
|

.IP
|
|
Go into the background after screen setup. Messages to

\fB-modtweak,\fR \fB-nomodtweak\fR
|
|
.IP
|
|
Option \fB-modtweak\fR automatically tries to adjust the AltGr
|
|
and Shift modifiers for differing language keyboards
|
|
between client and host. Otherwise, only a single key
|
|
press/release of a Keycode is simulated (i.e. ignoring
|
|
the state of the modifiers: this usually works for
|
|
identical keyboards). Also useful in resolving cases
|
|
where a Keysym is bound to multiple keys (e.g. "<" + ">"
|
|
and "," + "<" keys). Default: \fB-modtweak\fR
|
|
.PP
|
|
\fB-xkb\fR
|

.PP
|
|
\fB-skip_keycodes\fR \fIstring\fR
|
|
.IP
|
|
Skip keycodes not on your keyboard but your X server
|
|
thinks exist. Currently only applies to \fB-xkb\fR mode.
|
|
\fIstring\fR is a comma separated list of decimal
|
|
keycodes. Use this option to help x11vnc in the reverse
|
|
problem it tries to solve: Keysym -> Keycode(s) when
|
|
ambiguities exist. E.g. \fB-skip_keycodes\fR 94,114
|
|
.PP
|
|
\fB-add_keysyms\fR
|
|
.IP
|
|
If a Keysym is received from a VNC viewer and
|
|
that Keysym does not exist in the X server, then
|
|
add the Keysym to the X server's keyboard mapping.
|
|
Added Keysyms will be removed when exiting.
|
|
.PP
|
|
\fB-clear_mods\fR
|
|
.IP
|
|
At startup and exit clear the modifier keys by sending
|
|
KeyRelease for each one. The Lock modifiers are skipped.
|
|
Used to clear the state if the display was accidentally
|
|
left with any pressed down.
|
|
.PP
|
|
\fB-clear_keys\fR
|
|
.IP
|
|
As \fB-clear_mods,\fR except try to release any pressed key.
|

Note that this option and \fB-clear_mods\fR can interfere
|
|
with a person typing at the physical keyboard.
|
|
.PP
|
|
\fB-remap\fR \fIstring\fR
|
|
.IP
|
|
Read Keysym remappings from file named \fIstring\fR.
|
|
Format is one pair of Keysyms per line (can be name
|
|
or hex value) separated by a space. If no file named
|
|
\fIstring\fR exists, it is instead interpreted as this
|
|
form: key1-key2,key3-key4,... See <X11/keysymdef.h>
|
|
header file for a list of Keysym names, or use
|
|
.IR xev (1)
|
|
. To map a key to a button click, use the
|
|
fake Keysyms "Button1", ..., etc.
|
|
E.g. \fB-remap\fR Super_R-Button2
|
|
.PP
|
|
\fB-norepeat,\fR \fB-repeat\fR
|
|
.IP
|
|
Option \fB-norepeat\fR disables X server key auto repeat
|
|
when VNC clients are connected. This works around a
|
|
repeating keystrokes bug (triggered by long processing
|
|
delays between key down and key up client events:
|
|
either from large screen changes or high latency).
|
|
Note: your VNC viewer side will likely do autorepeating,
|
|
so this is no loss unless someone is simultaneously at
|
|
the real X display. Default: \fB-repeat\fR
|
|
.PP
|

\fB-xwarppointer\fR
|

.IP
|
|
Move the pointer with XWarpPointer() instead of XTEST
|
|
(try as a workaround if pointer behaves poorly, e.g.
|
|
on touchscreens or other non-standard setups).
|
|
.PP
|
|
\fB-cursorpos,\fR \fB-nocursorpos\fR
|

Option \fB-cursorpos\fR enables sending the X cursor position
|
|
back to all vnc clients that support the TightVNC
|
|
CursorPosUpdates extension. Default: \fB-cursorpos\fR

\fB-buttonmap\fR \fIstring\fR
|

.IP
|
|
String to remap mouse buttons. Format: IJK-LMN, this
|
|
maps buttons I -> L, etc., e.g. \fB-buttonmap\fR 13-31
|
|
.IP
|
|
Button presses can also be mapped to keystrokes: replace
|
|
a button digit on the right of the dash with :<sym>:
|
|
or :<sym1>+<sym2>: etc. for multiple keys. For example,
|
|
if the viewing machine has a mouse-wheel (buttons 4 5)
|
|
but the x11vnc side does not, these will do scrolls:

.IP
|
|
\fB-buttonmap\fR 12345-123:Up+Up+Up::Down+Down+Down:
|
|
.IP
|
|
See <X11/keysymdef.h> header file for a list of Keysyms,
|
|
or use the
|
|
.IR xev (1)
|
|
program. Note: mapping of button
|
|
clicks to Keysyms may not work if \fB-modtweak\fR or \fB-xkb\fR is
|
|
needed for the Keysym.
|
|
.IP
|
|
If you include a modifier like "Shift_L" the
|
|
modifier's up/down state is toggled, e.g. to send
|
|
"The" use :Shift_L+t+Shift_L+h+e: (the 1st one is
|
|
shift down and the 2nd one is shift up). (note: the
|
|
initial state of the modifier is ignored and not reset)
|
|
To include button events use "Button1", ... etc.

\fB-nodragging\fR
|

.IP
|
|
Do not update the display during mouse dragging events
|
|
(mouse motion with a button held down). Greatly
|
|
improves response on slow setups, but you lose all
|
|
visual feedback for drags, text selection, and some
|
|
menu traversals.
|

"ignore" or "exit". For "ignore" libvncserver
|
|
will handle the abrupt loss of a client and continue,
