[oi-dev] Xvnc securitytypes=none and issue #10584

[Alexander Pyhalov]

Hi.

1) securitypes=none should be set as without this Xvnc will ask password set in Xvnc global password file.
We don't want this to happen, as lightdm authenticates user, not Xvnc. 

2) current setting works as intended - you can check it yourself.

So, I'd close this bug as invalid.

Тема: [oi-dev] Xvnc securitytypes=none and issue #10584


All-

I've been looking at some of the issues in the issue tracker that are
categorized as "bite-size", to see if I could help resolve some of the
easy ones.

In looking at

        https://www.illumos.org/issues/10584

Which suggests we should drop the "securitytypes=none" from the commented
Xvnc line in our lightdm.conf, I see that one of our patches specifically
adds that, and also patches the source to include it.

I can provide a patch that alters the existing patch, but I don't
understand the reason for the change in the first place.

It looks like alp and Michal are the only two to have been involved with
that patch (lightdm/patches/17-customize-config.patch).

Can anyone comment on why securitytypes=none is being added?

Tim
