Stick it in their start up group.. Or if you cant trust them, their login script..
Or id say screw the so-called restriction, and make them sign an agreement that they are subject to monitoring with out notice. business use only, bla bla bla. That's how *any* company I have ever worked for covers themselves. Its the companies equipment, not the users. They don't have any say-so. Period. Anything less is irresponsible on your companies part. If you want to take that silly concept too an extreme then you cant even log network traffic, routers or proxies.. which is totally ludicrous. Thus the 'agreement' If you want to be kind, they can also just watch for the icon to change color..then they know they are being watched. Though I disable the icon totally in my case, as the users DID agree, and its one less icon in their system tray to be confused about.. Just a disclaimer, I don't spy on users as normally they call Me wanting help, but worrying about users whining ' they might spy on me' is just plain silly. They need to understand the reality of the situation and get a life. > > --__--__-- > > Message: 7 > From: "Stefan Ebert" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Subject: OT? -> VNC as Service > Date: Fri, 10 Jan 2003 12:34:56 +0100 > > Hi, > > > I hope I'm not OT: > > I'm using VNC in a wide spread, low bandwith network with lotsa M$-based > workstations for 'bout 3 years. 3 weeks ago our worker's commitee decided > that vnc might not be law-conform for users could be audited w/o notice and > is checking if the software should be forbidden. > For the ratio of techs/users is very low and the distance between the > branches is an average of 200km, this would be my very personal worst-case > scenario. > > VNC is installed on each WS as service and to be started manual by an admin > using script or strcm.
