How to decide where is the line between StackOverflow and ServerFault

I closed your question as off-topic for one simple reason: You posted essentially the same question on Stack Overflow and Server Fault. All you did for your question here was trim the code out (and i …

The reason for closing my question about a VNC server problem is false
