# 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.
