What goal are you trying to acheive by shutting down the desktop? VNC by default can be left running (with your desktop and programs running) so that you can re-connect at any point and be at the same place. Normally that would mean just shutting down the VNCViewer locally. When you reconnect to the server you will see the same screen that you had when you closed the vncviewer. Other setups do exist that kill your VNC session when you log out, presenting you with a log-in screen and a fresh desktop. I would image that would be a pain if you get disconnected in the middle of a session, though. -- William Hooper _______________________________________________ VNC-List mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.realvnc.com/mailman/listinfo/vnc-list
