This is the command tightvncpasswd that can be run in the OnWorks free hosting provider using one of our multiple free online workstations such as Ubuntu Online, Fedora Online, Windows online emulator or MAC OS online emulator
PROGRAM:
NAME
vncpasswd - set passwords for VNC server
SYNOPSIS
vncpasswd [file]
vncpasswd -t
vncpasswd -f
DESCRIPTION
The vncpasswd utility should be used to create and change passwords for the TightVNC
server authentication. Xvnc uses such passwords when started with the -rfbauth command-
line option (or when started from the vncserver script).
vncpasswd allows to enter either one or two passwords. The first password is the primary
one, the second password can be used for view-only authentication. Xvnc will restrict
mouse and keyboard input from clients who authenticated with the view-only password. The
vncpasswd utility asks interactively if it should set the second password.
The password file name defaults to $HOME/.vnc/passwd unless the -t command-line option was
used (see the OPTIONS section below). The $HOME/.vnc/ directory will be created if it does
not exist.
Each password has to be longer than five characters (unless the -f command-line option was
used, see its description below). Only the first eight characters are significant. If the
primary password is too short, the program will abort. If the view-only password is too
short, then only the primary password will be saved.
Unless a file name was provided in the command-line explicitly, this utility may perform
certain sanity checks to prevent writing a password file into some hazardous place.
If at least one password was saved successfully, vncpasswd will exit with status code 0.
Otherwise the returned status code will be set to 1.
OPTIONS
-t Write passwords into /tmp/$USER-vnc/passwd, creating the /tmp/$USER-vnc/ directory
if it does not exist, and checking the permissions on that directory (the mode must
be 700). This option can help to improve security when your home partition may be
shared via network (e.g. when using NFS).
-f Filter mode. Read plain-text passwords from stdin, write encrypted versions to
stdout. One or two passwords (full-control and view-only) can be supplied in the
input stream, newline terminates a password. Note that in the filter mode, short
or even empty passwords will be silently accepted.
