Hi!

I need a command list or the command to set a password to the vnc server that comes with dsl.

Thank you very much.

in an xterm as root, just type:

passwd dsl

and then enter a password of your choice.
you have to do the same in order to configure your printer with cups, or to use betaftpd.

In some cases must create a password file by:
Code Sample
vncpasswd <password_file>

Type a password of your choice.

Then for example if you want to run your vnc server grab your current display but have it to ask the password you chosed
Code Sample
x0vncserver -PasswordFile=<password_file>


I hope this helps...

Now if anyone could tell me instead how to get that java applet working... Or do I have to put one to my server manually?
