vino preferences double checked.  They are:
Allow other users to connect to your desktop: true
Allow other users to control your desktop: true
Ask for your confirmation: false
Require the user to enter this password: false
Only allow local connections: false
Use an alternative port: false
Require encryption: false
Lock screen on disconnect: false
Only display an icon when someone is connected: true
