Hi,

Is there a way to have krfb automatically accept connection, and avoid
all dialogs/questions from a particular computer? I'm trying to connect
to my home krfb server from the office, but someone has to be at the
home computer to accept the connection. The 1 hr limit for invitations
seem way too rigid to allow for this. Any advice?

Thanks,

Set up a VNC server. You can then ssh to your server and start a vnc
session/use an already existing one.

Then use krdc to connect to it.

Kinds regards, Lisandro.

Yes.
Go to Settings -> Configure Desktop Sharing
In the Security 'tab', check 'Allow uninvited connections' and specify a
password. You'd have to use that password when connecting.

File a 'wishlist' type bug to make the limit configurable, the current limit of
1 hr is indeed rather useless.
