Hi, hope you'll see this different vnc question as being on topic... I am running vnc on my fedora notebook The other machines I want to connect to all run win2k or xp, and I have a policy of always requiring ctrl alt delete for logons. Plus at work staff often lock desktops, which need same to unlock. This is easily managed when running tightVNC on a windows machine as the ctrl alt delete keystrokes can be sent by right clicking the taskbar button (it has a menu option for "send ctrl alt delete").

I can't find any way to send the ctrl alt del keystroke from vnc running on linux, hence can only do things remotely if a 2k or xp machine is logged on or unlocked. This seriously limits this option for me, and doesn't help me increase my %age of time running linux.

Googling on vnc and "ctrl alt delete" didn't take me to anything on running vnc on linux, only on windows. Can anyone suggest how I can get round this, or perhaps another similar tool?

Roger
