Does it work if you pass vncpassword=asdasd on the kernel command line? This is because new vnc doesn't support changing these settings during runtime. I fixed this for rhel6 already, but forgot to push to master too, I'm sorry, my fault. (In reply to comment #3) > Does it work if you pass vncpassword=asdasd on the kernel command line? Doesn't seem to make a difference Reproduced on anaconda15.20.1 in 15 Alpha RC1 Discussed at 2011-03-11 blocker review meeting. This issue is fixed and available for testing in anaconda-15.21-1.
