x11vnc allows one to view remotely and interact with real X displays
(i.e. a display corresponding to a physical monitor, keyboard, and
mouse) with any VNC viewer. In this way it plays the role for Unix/X11
that WinVNC plays for Windows.
It has built-in SSL encryption and authentication, UNIX account and
password support, server-side scaling, single port HTTPS and VNC, mDNS
service advertising, and TightVNC and UltraVNC file-transfer.
It also provides an encrypted Terminal Services mode (-create, -svc, or
-xdmsvc options) based on Unix usernames and Unix passwords where the
user does not need to memorize his VNC display/port number. See also
the tsvnc terminal services mode of the SSVNC viewer.
The SlackBuild no longer REQUIRES a JDK/JRE since it is not needed to
run the SlackBuild. A JRE (or JDK) is only needed at run time if it's
intended to run the Java based viewer applet.
