I have a setup with LINUX running (multiple!) VNC servers, tunneled out
using SSH into Windoze clients (2000/XP). lemme know monday if you're
still stuck, I'll look up the scripts etc. if you want.

I set something similar up for someone, an icon that runs simple scrip:
ipconfig
pause
winvnc
I then told her that "if you want help, click on this icon,
read out this number (IP address for ppp link) and press space when I tell you to"
ugly, but it works.

assuming both are on the internet, both should have a valid IP
address, so they should be able to se each other.
the trick might be in finding that address (it might be dynamically
assigned, in other words it might change every time you connect).
I used to use CarbonCopy to do that.
pre-windoze versions of PcAnywhere were DOS based too, I believe.
what apps are you running on the DOS boxes? just text?
we actually had a setup where we re-directed command.com's I/O to a serial port
and remote controlled a DOS box that way (sort of a poor m

you could probably set up a fake SMB printer or something, but
it's easiest to print-to-file (that should be available from
the print options dialog box) and send that file.
print as postecript (for portability) or install the same
kind of printer driver on the server as your actual printer on th
My condolances ;-)
You should still be able to print-to-file on the server machine.
automatically emailing the files to yourself should also be doable
there are procmail ports for windoze too (or maybe just craft i

I have a LINUX VNC server with a bunch of clients.
I'd like to auto-start the screen-saver when people disconnect.
Does anyone have a patch/suggestion/kludge for this?
thanks in advance,

Depends on the platform...
I have a setup using LINUX where I print-to-file, then have a crob-job to email me the
files.
on the client, I have a procmail script that prints them for me..
