VNC notification

First sorry if this forum is inappropriate. I couldn't see exactly where this should go.

I have installed x11vnc on my Arch linux box. It works beautifully, but I wondered if there was a way to enable a notification on the laptop that it's being remotely controlled/viewed. Some kind of popup saying that a client connected to the current display.

I use openbox btw. Any tips?

Re: VNC notification

Just in case anyone else wonders about this. I found the answer in the manpage. Use the -accept option.
