The program/script is expected to have the following signature: program/script(start/stop, port, password) All paramters are passed as strings. The first paramter is either "start" or "stop", the second one defines the port on which the vnc-server should run, the third which password should be set. Password and port are randomized by the PVS-Client. The port is chosen in the range of [59000, 59100]. *** Contact *** In case of problems, questions or any kind of feedback, mail me : wittenb@informatik.uni-freiburg.de
