When you refer to "pc's with two and even three displays" I'm guessing that you mean multiple monitors. These are not the same as multiple displays in the unix sense. A display in the unix sense refers to the desktop canvas that windows are drawn on, and to the keyboard and mouse inputs that the display accepts. Usually there is a separate display for each user working concurrently on a multiuser unix machine. In this sense, WinVNC does not support more than one display per host. Perhaps your next question, then, will be "How can I get VNC to display windows on other than the primary monitor"? I do think that it is possible, though it is frequently asked. -- Ross Presser -- rpresser AT imtek DOT com "... VB is essentially the modern equivalent of vulgar Latin in 13th Centurary Europe.
