== How to connect ==
=== From a Mac client ===
* Use the FQDN, e.g: vnc://talos-r4-snow-001.build.mozilla.org
=== From a Linux client ===
Remmina Desktop Client has and xtightvncviewer have been tested as a Linux client that managed to connect to Mountain Lion. Other versions have not been tested.
* [jmaher] - Remmina would connect and then terminate immediately for me, I ended up getting in with xtightvncviewer (the first try had a keychain issue, the second try worked)
**
For Linux clients, you will have to enable "legacy VNC" instead of Mac's version before you can connect as well as setting the password.
=== Mac OS X 10.8 - Mountain Lion ===
=== Mac OS X 10.9 - Mavericks ===
=== Mac OS X 10.9 - Mavericks ===

You can login with the root user, however, you will be starting root's VNC
session without being able to see what is happening under Builder/cltbld.
You can try the Builder user, however, it will only be a request that will
require an authorization and there's no one on the other side to grant you the access.
See https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=733534 for details.
