E.g. "far-away.east:0". -Port numbers are also allowed, e.g. far-away.east:5905. - -Or supply user@hostname:display and click on the "Use SSH" option, then -press the "Connect" button to connect to the server via an SSH tunnel. -E.g. "fred@far-away.east:0". - -Note it is also possible to disable the use of SSL/SSH -encryption tunnels by using a vnc:// or Vnc:// prefix before -host:display. Shift+Ctrl-E is a short-cut to add/remove it. -See also the \fB-noenc\fR option below for the 'No Encryption' button. - -Normally you do not specify any command line options. You simply -run \fBssvnc\fR and use the GUI that starts up. - -However, as shortcuts you can supply a VNC host:display (or host:port) -on the command line to connect to immediately (the GUI is started -and the connection is initiated). For example, "\fBssvnc far-away.east:0\fR" -Instead of a host:display, you can specify the name of a saved profile to -automatically load that profile and then connect to its server. -For example "\fBssvnc far\fR", if you named the profile "far". -You can use the \fB-profiles\fR option to list the profiles you have saved. - -The related commands \fBsshvnc\fR and \fBtsvnc\fR start up the GUI in -simplified modes: SSH Only Mode, and Terminal Services Mode, respectively. -See below and the application Help for more information on the modes. - -You can also place certain settings in your ~/.ssvncrc, see the -SSVNC Help panel ('Tips') for more info. - -The \fB-cmd\fR option does not start the GUI, it runs the command -line utility \fBssvnc_cmd\fR directly with the given arguments. -\fBssvnc_cmd\fR can launch the viewer directly (\fB-viewer ...\fR) -or, by default, the \fBss_vncviewer\fR SSL/SSH tunnel wrapper script. -See its help output for more information. - -There are also some command line options described as follows. -.SH OPTIONS -.TP -\fB\-help\fR, \fB\-h\fR -Prints out to the terminal a brief description and the options. -.TP -\fB\--help\fR -Starts up the GUI as though the 'Help' button was pressed to show the -main Help panel. -.TP -\fB\-cmd\fR \fI[ssvnc_cmd-args]\fR -Launch the ssvnc_cmd utility command directly (no GUI) with the given -arguments (for use when ssvnc_cmd is not in one's PATH.) If neither -ssvnc_cmd nor ssvncviewer is in PATH, one can launch the viewer -directly via: ssvnc -cmd -viewer [viewer-args] -.TP -\fB\-profiles\fR -List the saved SSVNC profiles you have created. A profile -is a destination host with specific parameter settings. -.TP -\fB\-list\fR -Same as \fB\-profiles\fR -.TP -\fB\-ssh\fR -Start in "SSH Only Mode". No SSL aspects are shown. -Same as running the command \fBsshvnc\fR -.TP -\fB\-ts\fR -Start in "Terminal Services Mode". This is like "SSH Only Mode", but -simpler and assumes \fBx11vnc\fR is available on the remote side -to start and manage X and VNC sessions. -Same as running the command \fBtsvnc\fR -.TP -\fB\-tso\fR -Same as \fB-ts\fR "Terminal Services Mode", however never let the -user leave this mode (no button to switch modes is provided.) -Same as SSVNC_TS_ALWAYS=1. -.TP -\fB\-ssl\fR -Force the full GUI Mode: both SSL and SSH. This is the default. -Same as \fB-ss\fR. -.TP -\fB\-nv\fR -Toggle the "Verify All Certs" button to be off at startup. -.TP -\fB\-nvb\fR -Never show the "Verify All Certs" button. -Same as SSVNC_NO_VERIFY_ALL_BUTTON=1. -.TP -\fB\-bigger\fR -Make the Profile Selection Dialog window bigger. -Same as SSVNC_BIGGER_DIALOG=1. -.TP -\fB\-noenc\fR -Start off in a mode where a 'No Encryption' check button is present. -You can toggle the mode with Ctrl-E. -Same as SSVNC_DISABLE_ENCRYPTION_BUTTON=1. Or \fInoenc=1\fR in ~/.ssvncrc. -Selecting no encryption is the same as the vnc:// and Vnc:// prefixes -described below. The \fB\-noenc\fR mode is now the default, use \fB-enc\fR -or \fInoenc=0\fR for the opposite behavior. -.TP -\fB\-killstunnel\fR -On Windows, automatically terminate the STUNNEL process when the viewer -exits instead of prompting you (same as \fIkillstunnel=1\fR in ssvnc_rc or -toggle in Options menu) -.TP -\fB\-nokillstunnel\fR -On Windows, disable \fB-killstunnel\fR mode. -Same as \fIkillstunnel=0\fR in ssvnc_rc or -toggle in Options menu.

They end in suffix \fB.vnc\fR - -Your SSVNC vnc certificates and keys are stored in the \fB$HOME/.vnc/certs\fR -directory.
