Is there any problem in using VNC on Microsoft OSs  i.e Win95/Win2K/NT/XP.
Any link or info about the same will be useful for me in making the decision
about using the VNC.

Yes ! I'm not sure about the other versions, but the licence for XP is quite explicit that use of 'remote control' packages other than NetMeeting is NOT allowed. This isn't a case of not saying that others are allowed, it explicitely states that they may not be used.


This isn't the end though. Many people (myself included) are confident that this clause would be declared illegal under European and (in my case) UK laws if Microsoft attempted to enforce it - but I don't think anyone wants to be the subject of a test case ! In fact there are still big question marks over the whole validity of 'shrink wrap licences'.
