How do I enable the built in VNC server in OS 10.x and set a password? I don't believe the wizard in KACE does the trick

It's a shell command. If you've got a kbox, it's a one-line script.


/System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/Resources/kickstart -configure -activate -access -on -clientopts -setvnclegacy -vnclegacy yes -setvncpw -restart -agent -vncpw admin


The -vncpw flag sets the password. In the example, it is the last flag and it sets the password to "admin"
Rating comments in this legacy AppDeploy message board thread won't reorder them,
so that the conversation will remain readable.
