This will reduce the amount of memory the client needs, which is
probably why it works - so you might find that you can continue to

if the above is true, you have to create the following key

Hi,
Can we configure the vnc server so that vnc viewer can not access
particular files or folders on the server.
I have some image files on the server which I don't want from being
viewed by vnc viewer.
thanks,

No - VNC cannot discriminate between files, it just passes events on to
the server, and feeds 'screen shots' back out to the client.
If you want to restrict access to documents, then you have to use the
systems own security settings.

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

You're right. Good call -- I didn't spot it because I don't have a Windows

It is simple...

You are now done. Simply startup your vncserver and on the remote computer
bring it up using the vncviewer.

I haven't used KDE in a while, but as I recall it uses simpler graphics.
That's probably why it's faster -- areas of flat color will encode smaller

Hey Matt,
I have never had the -cc 3 option work on Solaris.
I find that -depth 16 works the best.
Are you running the provided perl script, or using Xvnc with options. On
Solaris I recommend the Xvnc with options, using the -query localhost option
will give you the dtlogin screen.

I would imagine that would be tough - you'd have to build a whole X
environment in a chroot'ed directory
I've always wanted to try using smrsh (sendmail's restricted shell) as a
default user shell. That may be worth trying - or even setting up a
wrapper that detects if you're on display 0

Personally, I use a VPN connection through the firewall to manage any

course.
The other option is opening up ports on the firewall, which I would avoid if

What does VNC use to determine the name displayed on the Windows Viewer in

The reason I'm asking is that I've got VNC installed on my Windows 2000
