Is this a dedicated box, or one you share with others? VNC has a number of exploits that your hosting provider might like to be aware of. From a security standpoint, RDP to selected boxes on non-standard ports is a far better way to go. I'm sure an e-mail listing a few of them and a polite request to remove this hole in your server's security profile would not go unnoticed. - Dan * Dan Sorenson DoD #1066 A.H.M.C. #35 [EMAIL PROTECTED] * * Vikings?
