VNC Server: password decryption possible without plugins?

[buggybunny]

Hi folks,

I searched this forum, Google and the FAQs. I am pretty sure that what I want is impossible, but I ask anyway...

Prehistory:

When I call up the Java applet from the Command-Line Interface, i can pass the password for the VNC Server as an argument like this:

Code: Select all

java -cp VncViewer-1.02.3.jar VncViewer HOSTIP 123.234.345.456 PORT 5900 VNCUSER foo PASSWORD bar

What I want:

-> I want to pass an encrypted password to the Java applet like this

Code: Select all

java -cp VncViewer-1.02.3.jar VncViewer HOSTIP 123.234.345.456 PORT 5900 VNCUSER foo PASSWORD 5Z$§%OPU

-> The VNC Server has the key for this password, decrypts it and initiates the session

The question:

-> Is this possible? If yes, how? Any chance to configure the VNC Server accordingly or to patch it?
-> I know about the DSM Plugins, but they don't work with the Java applet and I need such a solution exclusively for the Java applet

Any ideas?

yes, configure the VNC Server accordingly or to patch it? It is no bad.
