X11VNC Password failed when connecting from Windows

[TinyIDIPS]

Started X11VNC with x11vnc -forever -bg -passwd PASSWORD

No connect from windows possible (UltaVNC, TightVNC), password mismatch. Changed password several times without success.

Tried x11vnc -storepasswd followed by x11vnc -usepw -forever -bg -> no success. Also x11vnc -rfbauth ~/.vnc/passwd without success.

I checked ~/.vnc/passwd, password stored in cleartext. I think it has to be encrypted.

I there a password bug or any ideas how to successfully connect from windows?

perhaps reviewing this Arch wiki regarding x11vnc might provide some clues and/or insight:

I do not find a solution for the problem.

By the way: I installed SliTaz for testing. Using x11vnc there works as expected.

So I think there must be a problem with the x11vnc package or server.

libvncserver and x11vnc updated in the x86_64 17.x repo in case that helps.

Thank, I checked this, but the x86_64 version does not run on my thinclient. Can you update x86 repo?
