-# x11vnc_loop:
-#
-# Example startup script for connecting x11vnc to an X display
-# at system boot up and having it reconnect when the X server restarts.
-#
-# Run, in rc.local say, via, e.g.:
-#
-# /path/to/x11vnc_loop 1>> /var/tmp/x11vnc_loop.log 2>&1 &
-#
-# call with argument "once" or a number to limit the number of loops.

-pwfile=/path/to/vnc/passwd # always use a password
-display=:0 # display of interest
-restart_sleep=5 # pause between X server restarts.
