I recently setup my main session to be shared with VNC so I can
remotely connect to my desktop and see what I see at home. Everything
seems to configured correctly the vnc server is running. I can connect
to the session however when I log in I get Authentication Failed. If I
start a new vnc session on :1 I can log in fine with no issues. Has
anyone ever set this up? Or have any suggestions on how to fix?
Here is there relevent sections of my xorg.conf:
Section "Module"
Load "dbe" # Double buffer extension
SubSection "extmod"
Option "omit xfree86-dga"
EndSubSection
Load "type1"
Load "freetype"
Load "vnc" # vnc.so // allows sharing of desktopsession.
Load "glx" # libglx.a
Load "dri" # libdri.a
EndSection
Section "Device"
Identifier "Standard VGA"
VendorName "Unknown"
BoardName "Unknown"
# Adding this to allow for vnc sharing of desktop section.
Option "passwordFile" "/home/useless/.vnc/passwd"
Option "localhost"
# End of VNC added lines.
Thanks in advance for any help,
