Hi,
I have a Kali Linux instance in AWS. I login via SSH using a key-pair file with ec2-user. I've configured TightVNC server for GUI access and I can connect by creating an SSH tunnel and then configuring VNC to run through the SSH tunnel.

However, whenever I try to run Wireshark, I'm presented with a box "Authentication is required to run /usr/bin/wireshark" as root. I have 2 options:

Debian (ec2-user)
Kali

Debian (ec2-user) doesn't have a password associated as AWS uses a key-pair. I've set the Kali password, but that doesn't load WireShark.

What do I need to do to be able run WireShark over VNC?

Thanks in advance
