I downloaded the tarball last night, installed it via stow in
/usr/local, and found that the -http flag  finds the ssl classes just
fine now. Thanks for suggesting this.

The problem, as you pointed out, is that the Debian binaries are missing
the correct jar files. However, if you have the vnc-java or
tightvnc-java this is obscured because it will fall back to using the
one of the jar files that can't handle SSL, so it *looks* like
everything should be working.

I've tried it with and without. I have a 64-bit machine with 8GB of RAM,
so I'm not too worried about memory consumption, but I'm currently
running without ncache for testing purposes.

While I've resolved this issue, I'm still having some other issues. Is
this the best forum for asking questions about x11vnc, or is there an
application-specific mailing list I should direct this sort of stuff to?
