Bug Description

Binary package hint: vino

Empathy + Google-talk account = you have the option to share your desktop with a gtalk buddy... and it works!

However, the share does allow the buddy control your desktop, regardless of the "Remote Desktop Preferences".

I've asked at #telepathy IRC and they have told me this is a vino bug.
I'm on Karmic, 64bit, upgraded several times.
I expected the vino-server session triggered by Empathy adhere my settings about remote-desktop.

I think i have the same problem.

On precise ß with Empathy 3.3.92 after allow other users to view your desktop, my XMPP contact could move my mouse or write a text.
I think it's not very secure.
