VNC on MacMini
Found this article: Manage VNC / screen sharing password remotely which explains where the vnc password is stored and how to view it using perl:
sudo cat /Library/Preferences/com.apple.VNCSettings.txt | perl -wne 'BEGIN { @k = unpack "C*", pack "H*", "1734516E8BA8C5E2FF1C39567390ADCA"}; chomp; @p = unpack "C*", pack "H*", $_; foreach (@k) { printf "%c", $_ ^ (shift @p || 0) }; print "\n"'
hello
$ perl -we 'BEGIN { @k = unpack "C*", pack "H*", "1734516E8BA8C5E2FF1C39567390ADCA"}; $_ = <>; chomp; s/^(.{8}).*/$1/; @p = unpack "C*", $_; foreach (@k) { printf "%02X", $_ ^ (shift @p || 0) }; print "\n"' | sudo tee /Library/Preferences/com.apple.VNCSettings.txt
hello
