Silly nit to be picked, here, but if the communication is to be accomplished over a modem connection, why do you really need encryption? I mean, I don't know that there's a whole lot of packet sniffing from the modem on your system to the modem on the NT box. On Wed, 13 Dec 2000, Jamin Collins wr

I wouldn't do it myself. VNC has no encryption and I'm a nut about security:-) If there was some way to run VNC under SSH I think it would be a solution to consider. Of course if security isn't a consideration then VNC sounds like a great product :-) Too bad Micro$oft would be offended by

I wouldn't go that far. I've got the VNC server installed on one of my Windows machines, and I've watched the resources dwindle down to nothing in rapid fashion...this is on a 350MHz AMD K6/2, with 128MB of RAM. Granted, I'm not running the most recent VNC server, and it's possible that things h
