VNC as a service on Windows 2000

I have installed VNC to run as a service on a Win2000 machine. I can log in with VNC only when a user is logged it. Once the local user logs out, I am disconnected. How can I make VNC run at all times... even when NO user is logged in locally. Justin Novian --- Justin M. Novian
