># The vncserver service unit file
>#
># Quick HowTo:
># 1. Copy this file to /etc/systemd/system/vncserver@.service
># 2. Replace <USER> with the actual user name and edit vncserver
>#    parameters appropriately
># 3. Run `systemctl daemon-reload`
># 4. Run `systemctl enable vncserver@:<display>.service`
>#
># DO NOT RUN THIS SERVICE if your local area network is
># untrusted!  For a secure way of using VNC, you should
># limit connections to the local host and then tunnel from
># the machine you want to view VNC on (host A) to the machine
># whose VNC output you want to view (host B)
>#
># [user@hostA ~]$ ssh -v -C -L 590N:localhost:590M hostB
>#
># this will open a connection on port 590N of your hostA to hostB's port 590M
># (in fact, it ssh-connects to hostB and then connects to localhost (on hostB).
># See the ssh man page for details on port forwarding)
>#
># You can then point a VNC client on hostA at vncdisplay N of localhost and with
># the help of ssh, you end up seeing what hostB makes available on port 590M
>#
># Use "-nolisten tcp" to prevent X connections to your VNC server via TCP.
>#
># Use "-localhost" to prevent remote VNC clients connecting except when
># doing so through a secure tunnel.  See the "-via" option in the
># `man vncviewer' manual page.
