Computer at home has a 192.168.0.x internal IP on one card hooked up to
a hub & an external IP hooked up to a cable modem.
At work my computer has a 10.0.0.xx IP & is hooked up to a server with
it's own IP.
When I open Vnc Viewer, what do I type in from home or work?

Step one do not advertise your IP. Step two use SSH or other secure tunnel software.
Step 3 Set VNC to use non-standard ports., step 4 make sure to use good 6+ char.
Alphanumeric passwords.

Why not just use SSH. Put the security where it belongs, in its own package and route
the app over teh secure connection. This how you get a secure connection using VNC.

VNC -inetd does not setup an http service. It just allows you to do remote
access identical to your console login. Think of it as a graphical telnet
session and you will know about what it does and does not do.

I use VNC all the time on Solaris 8, vncservers running CDE (dtwm),
sometimes many from one workstation, and vncviewer processes on

willing to get new software if VNC has issues.

from what i understand getting the inetd option working enables you to run
the vncserver as a daemon/service rather than manually launching it from a
shell.
it automagically spawns a vncserver process when it is seeing a connection
on the specified port.
it also lets you vnc into the linux box at

I've recently heard concerns about a buffer overflow that exists in VNC.
Maybe this is just a question of not doing my homework but does this really
have anything to do with Windows NT/2000 security (assuming Microsoft here)?
I just don't see this really being a security problem. Only a programmi

The other way, even though the server is connecting to itself, it's using

I installed the WINVNC as a service in our server about 4-5 months ago,
which our server is running WinNT 4.0 Server. Everything was fine during
that period. The problem has only happened starting from this month. The

Thanks Jacob, I tried exactly as you said, I've tried running winvnc as
