Update x11vnc to 0.9.6.

New in the 0.9.6 x11vnc release:

        x11vnc's SSL encryption is extended to support the VeNCrypt and
                TLS (older; vino) SSL/TLS security type extensions to VNC.

        Anonymous Diffie-Hellman key exchange (-ssl ANON) and Certificate
                Revocation List support (-sslCRL) is added to the SSL
                encryption mode.

        The Java viewer applet can now be served up through the VNC port
                (5900) in addition to the normal HTTP port (5800) via
                the -http_oneport option.  Previously this only worked
                for SSL connections and HTTPS.

        The "-rfbport PROMPT" mode presents a simple gui for the user
                to select a port for the x11vnc service and a few other
                settings.  This enables a menu entry for naive users
                that is included in x11vnc.desktop.

        If x11vnc is not built with the Avahi Zeroconf library an external
                helper program (avahi-publish or dns-sd on Mac OS X)
                is used instead.

  miscellaneous new features and changes:

        The default mode for '-ssl' is now the '-ssl SAVE' mode; i.e.
                the generated certificate is saved and reused in
                subsequent sessions rather than being discarded.
                Use '-ssl TMP' recover the old way.  This change made
                to for it to be more likely that the VNC Viewer can save
                the accepted cert for future authentications.

        The solid background color option works on the Mac OS X console.

        The -reopen option enables x11vnc to try to re connect to the X
                display if GDM (or other display manager) kills it just
                after the user logs in.

        The -dhparams option can be used to point to your own Diffie
                Hellman parameters.

        The -setdefer option allows tuning how quickly updates will
                be sent.  Default setting tuned.

        The option -zeroconf is now an alias for -avahi/-mdns.

        In pipeinput mode, the pipe filehandle is now closed when
                x11vnc exits.

        The -sshonly option turns off VeNCrypt and TLSVNC (vino) mod
                leaving only the standard SSL (i.e. vncs://)

        For testing, the option -rand in an alias for -rawfb rand -nopw

        Minor tweaks to improve CUPS Print tunneling.

Log message:
Update x11vnc to 0.9.5.

Pkgsrc changes:
        Added x11 option (enabled by default).
	You can still use with FB or MacOS X native display without X11.

New in the 0.9.5 x11vnc release:

        Symmetric key encryption using the RC4, AES, Blowfish, and 3DES
                ciphers is supported via the -enc cipher:keyfile option.
                The SSVNC unix viewer 1.0.20 and later supports these
                encryption methods.

        Server-side scaling can now have different scale factors along
                the horizontal and vertical axes.  E.g. -scale 1280x1024
                (same as -geometry 1280x1024) or -scale 0.8x0.75

        The -chatwindow option allows a chat window to appear on the
                X console during UltraVNC chats (requires the SSVNC
                viewer package.)

  miscellaneous new features and changes:

        The HTTP Java viewer applet jar, classes/VncViewer.jar, has
                been updated with an improved implementation based on
                the code used by the classes/ssl applets.

        A description and instructions are now printed out when
                X_ShmAttach fails if one tries to attach to a remote
                $DISPLAY (i.e. $DISPLAY is on a different machine from
                the machine x11vnc is running on; this often happens
                with SSH X redirection, X terminal servers, etc).

        The -allow option now works correctly in -ssl mode.

        The -remap option now works on the MacOSX console.

Update x11vnc to 0.9.4.

New in the 0.9.4 x11vnc release:

        Reverse VNC connections (-connect and  -connect_or_exit options)
                work in the -find and -create X session FINDCREATEDISPLAY
                modes.

        Reverse VNC connections (either normal or using SSL) can use a
                Web Proxy, a SOCKS proxy, the UltraVNC repeater proxy,
                an SSH connection, or even a CGI URL to make the outgoing
                connection (-proxy option).  Forward connections can
                use the -ssh option to set up a reachable redirection.

        Support for the ZYWRLE encoding is added, this is the RealVNC ZRLE
                encoding extended to do motion video and photo regions
                more efficiently by way of a Wavelet based transformation.

        The session finding and creating modes (-find and -create) have
                been improved to be more reliable and also provide a new
                desktop types (xfce) and new service redirection options.

        Support for indexed colormaps (PseudoColor) with depths other
                than 8 is provided (depths 1 to 16 now work).

        Java viewer applet source code is provided in the x11vnc 0.9.4
                tarball so now everything can be built from source.

  miscellaneous new features and changes:

        To unset Caps_Lock, Num_Lock and raise all keys in the X server
                use -clear_all, or by remote control 'x11vnc -R clear_all'

        The -autoport option gives more control over the server port
                range that probes.

        The -ping option can be used to help keep idle connections alive.

        The -finddpy and -listdpy utilities help to debug and configure
                the -find, -create, and -display WAIT:... modes.

        Some automatic detection of screen resizes are handled even if
                the -xrandr option is not supplied.

        The -advertise_truecolor option can workaround some VNC viewer
                incompatibilities with PseudoColor.

        The option '-clip xinerama0' can be used to clip to the first
                Xinerama sub-screen, etc.

        If a fast framebuffer read rate is detected the -wait and -defer
                parameters are reduced to 10 and 15 msec, respectively.

        Pasting of the selection/clipboard into remote applications
                (e.g. Java) is improved.

        Usage with dvorak keyboards is improved.  The option -macuskbd is
                available on MacOSX to use the original US keyboard code.

        Via a compiler option (-DENABLE_GRABLOCAL) one can use the
                -grablocal n option to filter VNC client input if someone
                at the console has done mouse or keyboard input n secs ago.

        The -sleepin option can now sleep a random amount of time between
                min and max time delays (-sleepin min-max).

Log message:
Update x11vnc to 0.9.3.

New in the 0.9.3 x11vnc release:

        This release provides client-side caching to improve interactive
        response.  Almost no VNC viewers implement caching which is why
        VNC is slow compared to other remote graphics protocols.

        The x11vnc caching will work with any VNC viewer, but they will
        not hide the pixmap cache region that is below the main desktop
        (one must adjust the window manually).  The SSVNC Unix VNC viewer,
        however, automatically detects and hides the region.

        To enable caching, supply "-ncache n" to x11vnc, where the
        number n, e.g. 10, indicates how much memory to devote to the
        caching scheme.

        See http://www.karlrunge.com/x11vnc/#faq-client-caching

Log message:
Update x11vnc to 0.9.2.

New in the 0.9.2 x11vnc release:

        A compile-time bug is fixed for when the OpenSSL library is not
                available or --without-ssl is supplied; previously the
                build would fail.

        One can configure x11vnc via "configure --with-system-libvncserver"
                to use a system installed libvncserver library instead of
                the one bundled in the release tarball.

        If UltraVNC file transfer or chat is detected, then VNC clients
                are "pinged" more often to prevent these side channels
                from becoming serviced too infrequently.

        In -unixpw mode in the username and password dialog no text will
                be echoed if the first character sent is "Escape".  This
                enables a convenience feature in SSVNC to send the username
                and password automatically.

  miscellaneous new features and changes:

        When building from the CVS tree --with-x11vnc must be supplied if
                you want x11vnc to be built.  The LibVNCServer release
                tarball no longer contains the x11vnc source.

Log message:
Update x11vnc to 0.9.1.

New in the 0.9.1 x11vnc release:

        A new Unix username identification scheme is provided when
                SSL client certificates are used to authenticate VNC
                viewers.  The username is extracted from the 'Subject'
                section of the cert.  The option is "-users sslpeer="
                which, like "-users unixpw=" already does, will cause
                a switch to the Unix user.  This is useful for the
                -find and -create options that try to find an existing
                X session associated with the user or create a new one.

        The UltraVNC Java Viewer has been modified to support SSL
                connections.  Some bugs were also fixed and some
                improvements added.  A patch file and a compiled jar file
                (UltraViewerSSL.jar and SignedUltraViewerSSL.jar in the
                classes/ssl directory) are provided in the x11vnc package.

        For the -user option groups are now handled better by using
                initgroups(3), or if finer control is needed one can
                use: "-users user1.group1,..."

        When SSL client certification is being used and external login
                programs are being used the env. var. RFB_SSL_CLIENT_CERT
                is set to the clients certificate.  Set X11VNC_SSLPEER_CN
                to use the Common Name instead of the certificate email
                address to find the unix username.

  miscellaneous new features and changes:

        The -wait and -defer defaults were lowered from 30 to 20
                milliseconds, set the values explicitly if this increases
                the load too much for your liking.

        In -create mode where a Xvfb session is started, mwm was added
                as a session type.  setpgrp(2) is used for the spawned
                process if available.  The XKEYBOARD extension is
                enabled (+kb, but it doesn't seem to always work).
                TrueColor is forced to be the default visual (recent
                Xvfb seem to choose DirectColor, this is likely a bug)
                One can also force creating a new Xvfb by setting the
                env. var. X11VNC_FINDDISPLAY_ALWAYS_FAILS (not exactly
                clear what this would be used for).

        The WAITBG env. var. enables -display WAIT:... to take place in
                the background.

        One can specify the X11VNC_SKIP_DISPLAY env. var. for a list of
                displays to exclude in the FINDDISPLAY action.  This can
                also be specified via nd=... as a -unixpw login option.

        setsid() or setpgrp() is called for the external command spawned
                by the -gone option (since it may be long lived, e.g. a
                screen locker).

        The script "onetimekey" utility is provided in the classes/ssl
                subdirectory that allows a (very long) string representing
                a Client SSL certificate to be provided by the authenticating
                client, or via https cgi script (e.g. after a web login).

        Some bugs were fixed in the libvncserver implementation of
                UltraVNC file transfer.

Log message:
Update x11vnc to 0.9.

New in the 0.9 x11vnc release:

        VNC Service advertising via mDNS / ZeroConf / BonJour with the
                Avahi client library. Enable via "-avahi".

        Implementations of UltraVNC's TextChat, SingleWindow, and
                ServerInput extensions (requires ultravnc viewer or ssvnc
                Unix viewer). They toggle the selection of a single window
                (-id), and disable (friendly) user input and viewing
                (monitor blank) at the VNC server.

        Short aliases "-find", "-create", "-svc", \ 
and "-xdmsvc" for
                commonly used FINDCREATEDISPLAY usage modes (to find
                the user's display or create one with Xvfb, etc).

        Reverse VNC connections (viewer listening) now work in SSL
                (-ssl) mode.

  miscellaneous new features and changes:

        New options to control the Monitor power state and keyboard/mouse
                grabbing: -forcedpms, -clientdpms, -noserverdpms,
                and -grabalways.

        A simple way to emulate inetd(8) to some degree via the "-loopbg"
                option.

        Monitor the accuracy of XDAMAGE and apply "-noxdamage" if it is
                not working well. OpenGL applications like like beryl and
                MythTv have been shown to make XDAMAGE not work properly.

        For Java SSL connections involving a router/firewall port
                redirection, an option -httpsredir to spare the user
                from needing to include PORT=NNN in the browser URL.

        A -sleepin n option to delay startup by n seconds to let redirs
                and listening clients to get started.

        TightVNC file transfer is now off by default; enable via
                -tightfilexfer
