Chris:
Heya. Unfortunately, no RDP in InstantVNC. Microsoft changed things
in Windows 7 so that the RDP service doesn't work well with tunneled
connections to the loopback interface anymore; many web pages
describing the similar problem seen by people using SSH to tunnel RDP
sessions. Works fine on XP, but not on Windows 7. And, to my dismay,
echoWare (used by InstantVNC) is built to use the loopback interface,
and it'd be a pretty significant change to echoWare to get it working
again. I guess I'm still hoping that a future Windows 7 service pack
puts it right again. :)
