In RealVnc's latest release you can get close to this: 1. Connect to the server 2. Open the options and save the configuration file (include password if you want) 3. There is also an option for prompt to reconnect.
When run from this config file if it loses its connection it will ask if it should reconnect, click yes and (if necessary) type the password. It will also offer to recoonnect if it fails normally but you will need to retype the password too. I save my passwords since my win box always locks and I have ip filtering on the server too. --Angelo On Apr 6, 2005 10:46 AM, Dr. Joel M.
