| 7 | .SH DESCRIPTION |
| 8 | .B x0vncserver |
| 9 | is a VNC server which continuously polls any X display, allowing it to be |
| 10 | controlled via VNC. How usable it will be depends a lot on the machine it's |
| 11 | running on, and what you're expecting. It won't be as fast as Xvnc or a native |
| 12 | X server with VNC support compiled in, but in many cases it is the best option |
| 13 | since it is just an ordinary X application requiring no special installation. |
| 14 | |
| 15 | It has many of the same parameters as Xvnc. Running \fBx0vncserver -h\fP will |
| 16 | give a list of parameters with descriptions. Note that you need to explicitly |
| 17 | specify an appropriate password file using the PasswordFile parameter. |
