→Chicken and egg: new section
We should probably show what config files need edited for sharing the desktop WITHOUT logging into HDA. For example, I use a headless HDA install and didn't need the desktop until adding a second hard drive. In this case, I needed VNC installed and running but couldn't do so without connecting a monitor which defeats the purpose of VNC for me...having the 'enable sharing' portion done in config files with text editors would be much better for those of us running headless.

== Chicken and egg ==
I believe that this app requires the user to authorize the remote connection on the desktop ... which means the user has to be logged in (console/monitor) OR VNC ... '''first'''.
That confuses most people, because of the VNC name to the app. Typically VNC and NX require one session (which in the case of NX can be started at the moment the first request comes in), but no authorization.
If we could make it that the authorization would be on by default, it may help!
