[plug] VNC Shell Script

[Brock Woolf]

Hi,
I am stuck in the middle of writing a shell script.
I want to setup a Cron job that will start a VNC server every 15 
minutes if it is not running.
The VNC server i want to execute uses the command "rfbdrake"
The problem is that if that command is run it brings up the GUI and has 
a box for a password.
I have not been able to find any command for this program and there is 
no man file.

So if the script were to run, it would only open the program but not 
actually start the program with the password.
I am running Mandrake 10.0 Official.
Does anybody know a solution to this problem.

Here is my setup:

Cron tab file, so far (without the dashes):
*/15 * * * * brock /brock_scripts/rfbdrake.sh


And this is the "rfbdrake.sh" shell script it refers to:
#!/bin/sh
if ps -auxww | grep "x0rfbserver" | grep -v grep ; then
	exit 0
else
	rfbdrake



Thanks,
Brock :)
