# This module implements a terminal service based on ‘x11vnc’.  It
# listens on port 5900 for VNC connections.  It then presents a login
# screen to the user.  If the user successfully authenticates, x11vnc
# checks to see if a X server is already running for that user.  If
# not, a X server (Xvfb) is started for that user.  The Xvfb instances
# persist across VNC sessions.
