eee PC

Set up x11vnc to start automatically on user login on the eee PC using a shell script:

#!/bin/bash
/usr/bin/x11vnc -rc ~/.x11vncrc 

This script explicitly calls the .x11vncrc file which contains the following x11vnc settings:

display :0
rfbauth .vnc/mums_pc
forever
localhost

Xfce calls this script using "Applications Menu-> Settings -> Session and Startup"

To maintain security of VNC I access the remote desktop through ssh:

ssh remote.machine -g -L 5900:127.0.0.1:5900

Standing at 06694.12 as of today!
