There are two programs here:

  vnc2dl - this is a VNC viewer which outputs to a DisplayLink device
          instead of to the desktop.
          
  vncpasswd - this program allows you to change the password used to
        access your X VNC desktops.  It creates a password file which
        vnc2dl might one day be able to use!

First you must have X installed because vnc2dl still uses some of the X build utilities.
Also, the TightVNC components require JPEG and zlib libraries installed in the system 
(e.g. under /usr/local)
You'll need the DisplayLink libdlo library installed, and this also requires a recent libusb.  

To build everything, do:

  % xmkmf
  % make World

This should build the vncauth library which is used by each of the programs, 
then vnc2dl and vncpasswd.
