It seems to me that the point of the disclaimer is not to make it possible

Isn't that just within Microsoft apps (or others that adopt the Microsoft

Are you a unix person? '~' is your home directory. Try this:
cd ~
cd .vnc
ls
do you see xstartup?
Should see it this way too:
ls ~/.vnc/xstartup

Can anyone recommend a freely-available ssh server for Windows? (I didn't
even know that one existed.)
It's easy to get a good scp client for Windows

Has anyone seen this? I hope it doesn't open a security hole in VNC.
The article suggests that VNC is "potentially vulnerable."

Did you mean -pn ? That makes sense. From the man page:

Thanks. I tried a different Sun and it did *not* crash. That Sun is

Please tell me if this has been discussed previously or repaired in later
versions of VNC. I think I'm running Xvnc 3.3.1 (installed Jan 4, 2000),
but it doesn't look like I can get Xvnc to give me a version number. I'm
running Solaris 2.6 on two machines and the problem occurs on both
machines.
