Taking screenshots of vnc
by sajansen from LinuxQuestions.org on (#568GE)
Hey, I would like a little bit of help with the following project im working on. I have a list of IP adresses and port numbers of vnc boxes. My plan was to make a script that takes the ip's and port numbers out of the txt file and connects, takes a screenshot and continues to the next box.
the IP list looks as follows:
192.168.1.10:5900
192.168.1.11:5901
192.168.1.12:5902
...
I found a few tools that somewhat worked but thy all seem manual, i would like to have it all automated. As its local and not accesseble from the internet, there are no credentials (for now) to make it easyer to test and work with
I have looked at noVNC and VNCscreenshot(?)
The script has to run on a headless machine so everything has to work from commandline. The system is Debian 8 (Jessie)
Thanks for the help :)
