The problems I had when I started writing the initial draft that David has now adapted is that older versions of gdm and kdm both did seem to use the xdm-config files from what I remember. My old SuSe box did (I believe anyway). It is all sort of blurring together. If you know which configurat

Thanks. The "permitopen" option works really well on the sshd. The only way I seem to be able to get around the loopback restriction is by running the ssh client on an intermediate machine. The "AllowLoopback" registry setting changes nothing. - Chuck Renner -Original Message- From: [

This is a Windows problem. If you are using an NT kernel (NT 3.5, 4, Win2000, or WinXP), you just need to make sure you are running WinVNC as a service. If you are using a personal OS (Win 95, 98, 98SE, ME), you are out of luck. CTRL+ALT+DEL stops ALL processes, and you cannot remote control the
