#### Table of Contents
## This is a SIMP module
This module is a component of the
[System Integrity Management Platform](https://simp-project.com) a
compliance-management framework built on Puppet.
If you find any issues, they can be submitted to our
[JIRA](https://simp-project.atlassian.net/).
## Module Description
This module installs the tigervnc client and server, and can create VNC Server
Sessions
## Setup
### What simp vnc affects
Packages managed by `simp/vnc`:
* tigervnc
Ports used by default for VNC Server:
* 5901 (1024x768)
* 5902 (800x600)
* 5903 (1280x1024)
### Beginning with VNC
#### Client Installation
To install the tigervnc client, just include `vnc::client`
#### Server Installation
To create a basic VNC server with default ports, include `vnc::server`
NOTE: You **MUST** set the following in Hiera to enable XDMCP. VNC will not
work without it.
```
---
gdm::settings:
xdmcp:
Enable: true
```
## Usage
### I want to create another VNC Connection
```puppet
# Screensaver timeout in minutes
vnc::server::create {'myconn':
port => '65000',
geometry => '1920x1080',
depth => '32',
screensaver_timeout => '30',
```
