Your ability not to understand makes VNC in general an untrustworthy
product. Controls on a network is not on the users PC, but the network,
where the user has no ability to touch. If you have the ability on transfer files
and I have no ability to block that transfer EXTERNAL to
Hello,
One of the simplist is having software tools that allow network to be
configured to block user mistakes. By bundling multiple functions in
a single port - without the ability to externally control the use -
then the port gets closed, because you could not understand NO FILE

What back door? File transfer ability would be nice for

What difference is there if I can transfer the file through my vnc
connection or if I just connect with vnc and access a sever to
download the file from. It just saves me a step in sending the file.
There is no additional security risk.
UltraVNC is (IMO) a good idea. I pulls a number of
There is more file transfer than ftp:
The smb protocol (aka: samba on unix, file sharing on M$Windows).
Mail the files from the remote to the local account.
If your server is on unix and the webserver is on, put your
file in the

With any VNC release as long as the enhancements can be turned on/off and
remain compatable with older releases, I think continued development can only
be a good thing for all platforms.
This is meaningless... If I restrict file transfer on my network, this program

I might quickly add that, the filetranfer component in particular is very
welcome, as most windows platforms (unlike *nix) do not have a ftp server
installed by default, and adding one, although possible, is another added
pain, especially if you want to send a 5k configuration script or

If the option to enable or disable file accesses via a registry key is enacted, I
