Hi list and Bryan.
I really think a lot of why VNC doesn't have built in openssl encryption is
the organic need to make thing difficult thereby requiring one to be a
propeller-head to use it.

The same thing happened to me on Windows98. I had to start the VNC service
in App mode. Once it prompted me for the password there, it seemed to save
it.

Hi, I've got a question about the "service helper" feature when running
windows NT: the documentation makes some reference that this doesn't have
to be run if you log out and log back in (with WinVNC started) - ie, the
icon appears in the systray. Is this accurate??

When you say MacVNC 3.3 Beta I assume you are talking about the AT&T
VNC server for Mac?
And 3.4 Alpha 3 is ChromiVNC Server (aka TridiaVNC Server)?

The signature needs to stay, otherwise subscribers "forget" how to

However, people need to take a bit more care to trim quoted messages
