vnc password

When I see qemu and change vnc password. How do I get out of this container. I use the quit command to exit the container, and the container will close automatically. When I try to restart the container, the VNC link will prompt me with the wrong password.

Added notes in b161ad7

To exit a container using -i you must docker kill <containerid>. For example, to kill everything, docker ps | xargs docker kill.

With respect to restarting the container, docker start -ai <containerid> or docker start -i <containerid> I have not tested yet. I will test tonight, but let me know if you test before I do.

Sorry, I may not have made myself clear.In your tutorial about https://github.com/sickcodes/Docker-OSX#i-need-vnc-to-a-remote-host-secure. You said "In the Docker terminal, press enter until you see (qemu). Type change vnc password".I use this command "change vnc password" to change the password to 123456, then VNC is used to connect the image with passeord 123456 successfully. But I don't know how to exit this container. If I use the quit command, the image will be closed automatically. Then I try to start the closed image. If I use VNC to link the image again, I will be prompted with the wrong password. Does it mean that the password I changed earlier is invalid after the container is closed.

I believe you have to set a new password on each boot with qemu. That would be for security reasons

I use a strong password like "QWE123456zxc", the same problem occurred

[sickcodes]

Everytime you run qemu you will need to set the password, unless you edit qemu.conf inside the container

Thanks a lot. I've solved my problem

I can't VNC into the container after stopping it once. Probably because "you have to set a new password on each boot with qemu". Can you please specify how to set a fresh qemu vnc password when starting a container with docker start containerid?

For anyone having issue with vnc password after stopping the container, you can start the container with -i flag and get the qemu console.

docker start -i containerid
