I remember inquiring last year about VNC as a network remote control
solution. Sincere thanks to all those that answered. We stopped the VNC
implementation after reading about all the risks related to the
product.
Our tech people are coming back and charging... again.
My question is simple is the latest version of VNC better than the
previous ones and should we allow our tech group to use it to take
control of our machines (servers and workstations)...
VNC is great, but doesn't have built in encryption, however you can pipe it through ssh and if you're real paranoid run that through a vpn, then everything is kosher. See their homepage for ssh instructions.
