Subject: [RESEND] [PATCH v2] Accept password as an argument to 'change vnc password'
Date: Mon, 8 Dec 2008 14:09:49 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20081208140949.GG19711@arachsys.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20081125102502.GJ2380@arachsys.com>

Accept password as an argument to 'change vnc password' monitor command

This allows easier use of the change vnc password monitor command from
management scripts, without having to implement expect(1)-like behaviour.
