Description Christopher Ng 2017-05-10 11:03:39 UTC
Description of problem:
This patch (http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/cgit/rpms/libvncserver.git/tree/LibVNCServer-0.9.10-system-crypto-policy.patch) changes the TLS priority string but it leaves in +SRP which is not supported by Fedora's version of GnuTLS.  GnuTLS rejects the priority string and the connection fails.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
0.9.10, 0.9.11

How reproducible:
Always.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start a TigerVNCServer with x509vnc enabled
2. Try to connect using Remmina as client (which uses libvncserver's client)

Actual results:
Remmina fails with an authentication failed error, but looking through the debug output of Remmina and GnuTLS shows that the priority string is wrong:

Remmina:

[VNC]VNC server supports protocol version 3.8 (viewer 3.8)

Expected results:
