Hi, I was trying to connect to a vnc server via nx this morning but noticed on my gentoo box the nxpasswd command in no longer there.And honce the passwd file wasn't created. the vncpasswd command needs the password repeated twice into it. So I quickly created this wrapper around vncpasswd COMMAND_VNCPASSWD=/usr/local/bin/nxpasswd The contents of the wrapper are #!/bin/sh read passwd echo "$passwd $passwd" | vncpasswd $1 I think this will still have problems as vncpasswd has limitations. eg min length 6 characters etc...
