Are there any security risks associated with using vncserver? I remember
that older versions of vnc had a security flaw that would essentially let
anyone log into the session, but was under the impression that had been
fixed in the latest one. Other than locking the display before closing the
session, is there anything else I need to do to secure this? Is there a way
to force the server in /etc/rc.d/init.d/ to run as non-root? Since I havent
been using any GUI on any of my linux boxes, being able to run an X/Gnome
session is kind of a hoot =)
