On windows you need to check the "request shared session", on unix
you need to use the -shared option. From the man page:
-shared
When you make a connection to a VNC server, all other existing
connections are normally closed. This option requests that they
be left open, allowing you to share the desktop with someone
already using it.
-viewonly
Specifies that no keyboard or mouse events should be sent to the
server. Useful if you want to view a desktop without interfering;
often needs to be combined with -shared.
