I mean lock out as in NT type lock out i.e. try the VNC password 3 times and then it can't be used until admin resets it.... Otherwise its easily hackable, just like every Checkpoint VPN I've ever seen.... Regards, Malcolm.

Does it say "VNC authentication failed!" ? I use VNC across the net also. Regards, jeroen Date: Wed, 12 Dec 2001 10:13:13 -0000 From: "Malcolm Turnbull" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Password Lock Out on VNC ? OK assuming I am stupid enough to risk using VNC across the Internet (which I am.) Can you stop people getting the password by brute force methods ? i..e. have a lock out on the VNC password... I gues the other option is forcing the NT PC to lock screen or log out when VNC disconnects... Has anyone done this or something similar ? Final option is VPN but I think they give way too much access and are a pain to set up. Regards, Malcolm.
