Dear James Pifer, dear VNC gurus and users, admittedly, I'm very happy VNC does _not_ have file transfer capabilites. For file transfers, other tools (such as scp, included in the OpenSSH package) are available (thanks to RedHat, even on the platform that comes from Redmond). As for VNC, its use in a remote maintenance setup (for machines crushing medical information) to allow for full control of those who work remotely by those who have to make sure private data is not accessed critically depends on its design (transport "visual" data, i.e., screen displays, and user interaction [keyboard, mouse], nothing else). Just my 2 cents... Best wishes, Yours, Ernst On 26 Jun 2001 08:47:25 -0400, James Pifer wrote: > Mark, I agree with you for the most part. VNC is great and much less > intrusive.
