(1) Go into your TCP/IP advanced settings and disable traffic over port 5800 (or the correct port of you are not running on Display 0). (2) I haven't tried this, but you can also open WinVNC.exe using a tool such as Resource Hacker (http://rpi.net.au/~ajohnson/resourcehacker/) and try manually modifying or deleting the JAVAARCHIVE and JAVACLASS resources. I have never done this, so caveat emptor. Note that other than giving a larger number of people *theoretical* access to your system, this doesn't do much. They still need to connect over the standard VNC port as soon as they are served the applet. IF they have the applet already, as noted in the docs, they can easily do a connection from *another* java applet page or even outside the browser - see http://www.uk.research.att.com/vnc/javavncviewer.html ----- Original Message ----- From: "Charndeep Bhogal" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, 2002-03-28 08:52 Subject: Disable Web Server > Hi, > > Does anyone know how to disable the web server in VNC so that no one can > connect to my machine using a Java enabled web browser? > > Thanks > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the line: > 'unsubscribe vnc-list' in the message BODY > See also: http://www.uk.research.att.com/vnc/intouch.html > --------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the line: 'unsubscribe vnc-list' in the message BODY See also: http://www.uk.research.att.com/vnc/intouch.html --------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the line: 'unsubscribe vnc-list' in the message BODY See also: http://www.uk.research.att.com/vnc/intouch.html ---------------------------------------------------------------------
