Subject: Clarification - pcanywhere functionality
hello everyone,
thanks to all who wrote. yes I am trying to snoop and display what is
happening on another unix box. we are not going to spy on other users, just
trying to teach people who are don't know the particular unix application.
here is the clarification: run an application like HP Openview on solaris
box and remotely just connect to that unix box and all the HP Openview GUIes
gets displayed on the remote machine and what ever someone is doing on Sun
box gets displayed on the VNC client. what we don't want to do is to use PC
with VNC and start the OpenView there. we are going to take PC user as just
someone who watches the action. Someone else on unix box will move cursors
and work with Openview and all the activities gets displayed on PC box.
thank you very much.
