[Bug 937820] Re: Incorrect IP for x11vnc -allow option

 

Hi Robert and thank you for reporting this bug!

Indeed we need to allow the range 172.16.0.0 - 172.31.255.255 too. Maybe a better idea would be to detect the current ip range of the network and allow only this.
The 127. range though is needed because that's what the thin clients use to connect to the server.

Title:
  Incorrect IP for x11vnc -allow option

Status in Epoptes:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Hallo,

  there is typo in the code of _broadcastScreen()

                self.vncserver = subprocess.Popen(['x11vnc', '-noshm', '-nopw',
                    '-quiet', '-viewonly', '-shared', '-forever', '-nolookup',
                    '-24to32', '-rfbport', str(self.vncport), '-allow',
                    '127.,192.168.,10.,169.254.' ])

  in file /usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/epoptes/ui/gui.py. This list
  should be list of private ranges 192.168.X.X, 10.X.X.X and 172.X.X.X,
  but there is "127." instead of "172." written.

  In the network 172.X.X.X will not broadcast screen.

  
  Regards,

  Robert Wolf.
