Releasing a modified version of RealVNC

2005-10-05 Thread S. I. Becker
Dear Wez et al, I've created a modified version of VNC. It is the same as RealVNC 4.1.1 with an added commend-line feature for the server that initiates a single connection to a listening viewer, and doesn't permit any other connections, no matter which side they are initiated. The server ex
