I was able to VNC in even when my Xubuntu box was at the login screen. Now enable and start the new service using the following commands:Ĭheck to see if it works and restart your box to double check.sudo vi /etc/systemd/system/rviceĮxecStart=/usr/bin/x11vnc -auth guess -forever -loop -noxdamage -repeat -rfbauth /etc/x11vnc.pass -rfbport 5900 -shared.Create a service that will run on bootup:.You might want to tweak this according to your needs. For my local needs I just set it to readable by all using sudo chmod a+r /etc/x11vnc.pass. Debian/Ubuntu requirements: (also didnt recognize openssl libraries, also didnt need them) You saved my day with a fresh Ubuntu 18.04 install Thanks Lovely. You will need to assign appropriate permissions to this x11vnc.pass file. x11vnc works now on Ubuntu Zesty :) on Thanks step to recognise the openssl libraries, but this isnt a massive issue for me as Im tunnelling over an SSH connection. Here's a tricky/dodgy bit from a security point of view.Sudo x11vnc -storepasswd /etc/x11vnc.pass Create a password to access X11VNC and store it in the /etc/ directory.Install x11vnc using something like sudo apt install x11vnc.
Hope this helps somebody else out there too. Here are the steps I used to get X11VNC working on an Ubuntu (19.10) box.
