Handy for who? A hacker? ;-) That's the last thing I want my system
to do.
My take on this:
VNC was intened AFAIK for remote admin use. As such, it assumes a
certain base knowledge of networking, tcp/ip, and security. Any admin
who opens random ports to the internet, and leaves servers running with
root priveledges accessible to the public, deserves to be shot. VNC

In linux, I can simply unload those portions of the OS I don't want to

uninstall drivers and disable the automatic driver insta
I fought a similar problem on a linux-based toshiba laptop. I finally
solved the problem by turning off as much of the power saving stuff as
possible. I would disable all power management, sound, multimedia,

VNC over VPN?
Yes. Do it all the time. There should not be anything special about
it. I run VNC over a network built with vtund (lightweight linux-based
vpn). I have also run VNC over pptp from a win 9x client to a
linux-based pptp server.
No problem either way. I have, however, run into a
If security is not an issue look at any tftp server. Or, for linux,
look up troll-ftp (www.trolltech.com) - an anonymous only stripped down
ftp server.

Apologies. Not meant to bite anyone's head off, nor to be rude or

VNC is better because it runs on the platforms I need. I run Win98SE in

VNC is designed to be used on relatively fast networks. Other variants,
like tightVNC, exist for slow connections.

Anyone know how to disable the xscreensaver for a vnc session? I want
to keep it running on display 0, but not on display 1.
System: Linux, RH 7.0, beta tightVNC.

OK i have a VNC mystery.
I am running a RedHat 7.0 workstation, XFree 4.1, and beta tight VNC.
I am trying to set up a "loopback" where I connect to the VNC server via
a viewer running on the same machine.
As long as I start X, then start vncserver, then start vncviewer,
everything works fine
Only if it's a windows box No prob w/ linux. :-)

OOPS! I missed that part of the readme. Once again, my fingers got
ahead of my brain
I guess that's the "cut down" version of X that Xvnc is based on...
Anyway, I just installed XF86 4.1.0 so everything should be fine.
Perhaps a line in the readme warning against make install might be
app
n make install? Or did I screw something up in the
make process?
No problem, just a curiosity. What's up?

Is the server on a win9x machine? An NT box? A linux box?
Basically, once you log in to the server you have the same priviledges
as a local user.
On a win 9x box, there is no real concept of security or even of
separate users, so you cannot deny access.
On an NT/W2K box, I guess you could set

I've run vnc under a lot of conditions, but this one is a new one on me.
I have a RedHat 7.0 workstation, running XF86 4.0.3, Gnome 1.4, and
Win4Lin 3.0. I want access to the workstation from my home machine.
Both machines are running tight-vnc, and all works fine.
