Disabling X Server TCP Connections

Rationale

The X graphics server in IGEL OS includes network functionality that, if enabled, could allow others to view your screen or capture keyboard input. Keeping this feature disabled helps maintain the confidentiality of user data.

Instructions

By default, the network functionality of the X server is disabled. To ensure it remains disabled (or to disable it again later), follow these steps:

  1. In IGEL Setup, go to User Interface > Display > Access Control.

  2. Ensure that Access Control is activated.

  3. Ensure that Disable TCP Connections is activated.

  4. Click Save.
