one other idea: I know that the java vncviewer allows for changing parameters while connected (as well as the windows version of vncviewer), maybe we could add that option into F8 so that we could change things such as the type of connection (hextile, zlib, tight, shared, etc) in the linux vncview

I think that would be an excellent 2 tiered approach to vnc. I know that there would be uses for both setups depending on needs. I did find that (so far) using xfce in fullscreen mode has not had the problems I have had in the past with using this approach (using Mandrake 8.1). I still would like

There is a CORE SDI advisory about the VNC authentication protocol and how it is vulnerable to a man in the middle attack. This advisory was for 3.3.3. Has it been corrected in the current implementations? thanks -- Chris Hare, CISSP, CISA [EMAIL PROTECTED] --

Re: DES or 3DES

vnc and RealPlayer A/V

Is there some fundamental incompatibility between VNC and Real's RealPlayer A/V viewer/player? When I try to view video clips via Real's software over VNC, I just get a black screen. And suggestions? Thanks. -Joel Hoffman ([EMAIL PROTECTED])

Actually, the same happens to MediaPlayer. In fact, any data, including videos and images, which is post-processed by your graphics-card won't be caught by VNC. This happens because the pixel information in these cases is not joined together with the rest of your screen data. They are blende

Hello all, I have Xvnc running as a service on my Linux Mandrake 8.0 box in the xinetd directory and I was wondering if there was a way to have different ports run a different manager? For example, I would like one port to show the xwindows kdm login screen and another to show up with the gdm lo
