Does x11vnc have built-in SSL tunneling?
You can read about non-built-in methods in the Previous FAQ for background. SSL tunnels provide an encrypted channel without the need for Unix users, passwords, and key passphrases required for ssh (and at the other extreme SSL can also provide a complete signed certificate chain of trust.) On the other hand, since SSH is usually installed everywhere and firewalls often let its port through, ssh is frequently the path of least resistance. Built-in SSL x11vnc options: As of Feb/2006 the x11vnc -ssl option automates the SSL tunnel creation on the x11vnc server side. An SSL-enabled Java Viewer applet is also provided that can be served via HTTP or HTTPS to automate SSL on the client side. The -ssl mode uses the www.openssl.org library if available at build time. The mode requires an SSL certificate and key (i.e. .pem file.) These are usually created via the openssl(1) program (in fact in for “-ssl” (same as “-ssl SAVE”) it will run openssl for you automatically.) So the SSL is not complet
