Description Ajinkya Patil 2016-06-08 05:23:53 EDT 
Description of problem:
While accessing the system remotely using vnc session, a window appears with clipboard options (vncconfig window). How to disable it permanently? 

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Always.

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Configure vnc. 
2.Access vnc server remotely .
3.window appears with clipoboard options.

Actual results:
window appears with clipoboard options

Expected results:
Wndow shall not appear.

Additional info:
This window is generated by "vncconfig -iconic" option in /usr/bin/vncserver.
If we edit /usr/bin/vncserver file as follow:-

Before:-
system($exedir."vncconfig -iconic >> " . &quotedString($desktopLog) . " 2>&1 &")

After:-
system($exedir."vncconfig -nowin >> " . &quotedString($desktopLog) . " 2>&1 &")
Window shall not appear but customer wants a command line parameter which works here to disable -iconic option.
Comment 1 Jan Grulich 2016-06-08 07:49:45 EDT 
Shouldn't be a problem, it's just that vncserver is a convenient script so you don't need to use Xvnc directly. I would still recommend to the customer to use Xvnc directly when they need specific usage, but it's not a big deal.
