x11vnc

A VNC server that will enable VNC on an existing display server. By default, the server will automatically terminate once all clients disconnect from it.

• Launch a VNC server that allows multiple clients to connect:

x11vnc -shared

• Launch a VNC server in view-only mode, and which won't terminate once the last client disconnects:

x11vnc -forever -viewonly

• Launch a VNC server on a specific display and screen (both starting at index zero):

x11vnc -display :{{display}}.{{screen}}

• Launch a VNC server on the third display's default screen:

x11vnc -display :{{2}}

• Launch a VNC server on the first display's second screen:

x11vnc -display :{{0}}.{{1}}
