DM, I haven't seen one, and it might be pretty hard to tell due to the distribution mechanism for VNC. Unlike commercial packages, for example, there is no required registration process. In fact, the usual way we find out that any institution or person is using VNC is by seeing a posting from someone there!
For example, a few weeks back someone from Ames Research Center posted a question about internally redistributing a customized version of VNC which would be used by other NASA centers; before that, I had no clue that anyone at NASA other than an individual at Goddard Research Center were using it. I was sure there *were* people, but there was no way to tell. I can offer some inductive theories about the image and degree of penetration based on a recent discussion with some other Microsoft MVPs. The general run of opinion among the primarily US-based posters was that for remote access to newer Microsoft OSs, the primary remote access method being installed was the built-in Terminal Services in Remote Admin mode, followed by VNC and then - way back behind that - pcAnywhere. Trying to extrapolate that to general use in the UK would lead me to guess that VNC is probably close to being the front-runner for GUI remote control for 2 reasons: (1) Awareness of VNC in the UK is likely to be significantly higher in the US, due to its point of origin. (2) We haven't even touched Linux/Unix systems, where VNC is the de-facto GUI remote desktop tool. ----- Original Message ----- From: "D.
