having a vnc server running -forever without any security is very risky IMO.

at the very least you should protect it with a simple password:
run

Code:

x11vnc -storepasswd

as root once, this will prompt you for a password and save the file as /root/.vnc/passwd

to use this passwd file, change the command in your event.d:

Code:

/usr/bin/nohup /usr/bin/x11vnc -forever -usepw &
