Title:
  Cannot configure the vino-server "security type" control

Status in vino package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I was setting up a testcase for gnome's vino server. Vino had to be
  tested to confirm it works at the basic level of vnc connection.

  Packages installed: vino, xvnc4viewer

  After installing vino and xvnc4viewer, in lubuntu, (xubuntu with
  lubuntu-desktop installed). The vino-server was started in Lubuntu
  14.04 using this following command: /usr/lib/vino/vino-server &. This
  is the output of the following command.

  (vino-server:16269): WARNING **: Couldn't connect to accessibility
  bus: Failed to connect to socket /tmp/dbus-3lXPtqLo8q: Connection
  refused

  (vino-server:16269): EggSMClient-CRITICAL **: egg_sm_client_set_mode: assertion 'global_client == NULL || global_client_mode == EGG_SM_CLIENT_MODE_DISABLED' failed

  I have read multiple tutorials outlining procedures to enable and
  connect to a vino-server. In all instructions, "ssh" was used to
  establish the connection. This is the form of the command  to connect
  to a vino-server.

  "ssh -L 12345:localhost:5900 username@ipaddress".

  I tried testing vino on my own laptop by connecting to itself.

  Whenever I performed the connection with or without ssh, I always get
  this output from the server:

  17/01/2015 04:19:08 PM [IPv4] Got connection from client localhost
  17/01/2015 04:19:08 PM   other clients:

  This was after I used the command, ssh -L 12345:localhost:5900
  username@ipaddress

  I get this output after I typed xvnc4viewer from my local terminal:

   CConn:       connected to host 172.29.24.129 port 5900
   CConnection: Server supports RFB protocol version 3.7
   CConnection: Using RFB protocol version 3.7
   CConnection: No matching security types
   main:        No matching security types

  It seems the problem is that I cannot establish a successful
  connection unless I am using the same security type. I could not find
  a way to configure the vino-server to change or remove the security
  type. There was no manpage for the vino-server. A manpage for the
  vino-server is needed, updated setup howto for all variants of ubuntu
  and an advanced configuration file for the vino-server to modify how
  it runs and behaves.
