Create a file called, for example, startVNC and fill it with:
sudo /System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/Resources/kickstart -activate -configure -access -on -clientopts -setvnclegacy -vnclegacy yes -clientopts -setvncpw -vncpw PASSWORD -restart -agent -privs -all
The password used to enter via VNC must be filled in PASSWORD.
Create a file called, for example, stopVNC and fill it with:
sudo /System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/Resources/kickstart -deactivate -configure -access -off
Don’t forget to give executable permissions to both:
chmod +x startVNC chmod +x stopVNC
I use those scripts when I need to do something in the graphical interface but I’m far away from my computer. Just enter by SSH, start VNC service, do what I need and stop VNC again.
