* Use standard install dir variable namesPierre Ossman2020-03-125-14/+14
| | | | | This makes our builds directly compatible with most distributions without packagers/users having to specify extra flags.
* Add SELinux policy file for vncsessionPierre Ossman2020-03-125-0/+104
| | | | | | Running as a service on a SELinux system requires rules so we can transition to our own context. We also need the proper permissions to start new user sessions.
* Start sessions via PAMPierre Ossman2020-03-129-137/+755
| | | | | | | | | This sets up a more correct session as there are key tasks that need to be performed by PAM. E.g. systemd will allocate cgroups and start base services. In order to easily handle this as a system service the mapping of displays is now done via a configuration file.
* Stop searching for XvncPierre Ossman2020-03-122-31/+3
| | | | | Assume we are part of a complete and proper installation and encode the full expected path in to the vncserver script.
* Start the sessions using xinitPierre Ossman2020-03-122-88/+20
| | | | | It keeps much better track of the X server and startup files than we can do.
* Make vncserver always run in the foregroundPierre Ossman2020-03-122-204/+8
| | | | | | We need to be started as a system service for things to work correctly anyway, so delegate the work of starting and stopping things to the system service manager (e.g. systemd).
* Start sessions using session desktop filePierre Ossman2020-03-122-88/+126
| | | | | This is how display managers (e.g. gdm or lightdm) start sessions and is necessary to get the proper set of environment variables.
* Don't create a default user configPierre Ossman2020-03-121-20/+0
| | | | | We don't want to create files in the users home directory unless we have to. Users can read about how this file works in our man pages.
* Don't accept arbitrary arguments to vncserverPierre Ossman2020-03-123-244/+19
| | | | | We now have config files for more fine grained control of these things, so avoid duplicating the functionality.
* Stop unsetting environment variablesPierre Ossman2020-03-121-2/+0
| | | | | These might contain values we want if we are start from a proper environment.
* Always install systemd servicesPierre Ossman2020-03-122-0/+51
| | | | | | | It is the most common init system these days so it should not be hidden in the contrib/ directory. This also removes all old SysV files from the contrib packages.
* Add default configuration filesPierre Ossman2020-03-125-0/+237
| | | | Install some example files to make things more easily discoverable.
* Don't background the main session commandPierre Ossman2019-12-091-1/+1
| | | | | | When used with -fg we expect the startup script to remain running until the session is over. This will not happen if the session command is put in the background using &.
* Do not return returncode indicating error when listing sessionsJan Grulich2019-07-111-1/+1

* Remove Java web serverPierre Ossman2018-10-091-8/+0
| | | | | Applets don't work anymore so remove everything that has to do with serving them.
* Make sure auth argument is escapedOliver Gondža2018-02-201-1/+1

* Do not depends on mcookie commandKoichiro IWAO2016-10-051-2/+18
| | | | | | | | for operating systems other than GNU/Linux. mcookie is a part of util-linux. Usually only GNU/Linux systems have it. Do not die even if mcookie is not found. Use the previous pure perl code to generate cookie as fallback.
* remove trailing spaceKoichiro IWAO2016-10-031-5/+5

| * Support both defaults and mandatory system config filesJeff Blaine2016-08-211-93/+130
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This commit introduces support for optional basic system-wide configuration of vncserver. The format and syntax of /etc/tigervnc/vncserver* match that of $HOME/.vnc/config exactly. Allows /etc/tigervnc/vncserver-config-defaults as well as /etc/tigervnc/vncserver-config-mandatory. The former is optional and sets user-overrideable vncserver settings. The latter is optional, but if it exists takes precedence over all user $HOME/.vnc/config settings of the same setting name. In the case where /etc/tigervnc/vncserver-config-mandatory overrides a setting in $HOME/.vnc/config, the user will be warned that it has happened. WARNING: Settings in /etc/tigervnc/vncserver-config-mandatory are easily subverted by passing args to vncserver on the CLI. The man page indicates this warning. This commit also introduces (should have been separate) examination of all config file settings (not just @ARGV!) when determining whether or not $HOME/.vnc/passwd needs to be created. That is, if /etc/tigervnc/vncserver* or $HOME/.vnc/config indicate that we are NOT using VNC-native authentication, then we don't need a $HOME/.vnc/passwd created. Code cleanup: $xstartup was renamed $xstartupFile for consistency with other "file" variable names. For VNC-auth checking, to determine if $HOME/.vnc/passwd needed creation, the 3-string check against lc($arg2) was in 2 places and was changed to a simple grep against the new @vncAuthStrings

* Launch vncconfig directly from vncserver, not from xstartup. Justification: ↵DRC2011-10-051-1/+2
| | | | | | vncconfig is necessary to enable basic functionality of the TigerVNC system (clipboard transfer, most notably.) It isn't always going to be in the PATH, and in fact, there might be more than one version of it on the system (for instance, a version from RealVNC in /usr/bin and a version from TigerVNC in /opt/TigerVNC/bin.) If it is desirable to disable vncconfig under certain circumstances, then I would suggest adding a command-line option to vncserver to accomplish that. git-svn-id: svn://svn.code.sf.net/p/tigervnc/code/trunk@4709 3789f03b-4d11-0410-bbf8-ca57d06f2519
