How do I use VNC through my firewall? http://www.realvnc.com/faq.html#firewall > Also, when I connect, it prompts me for the default password > I created when I first ran it, but I want to be clear about what rights > I have when I log in.

A VNC session is owned by the user that starts the session. If you run "vncserver" as root, the whole session belongs to root. If you run "vncserver" as ryan, the whole session belongs to ryan. Passwords also are dependent on what user starts the VNC server. Check out the "files" section of the vncserver man page, and the "-rfbauth" option in the Xvnc man page. -- William Hooper _______________________________________________ VNC-List mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] To remove yourself from the list visit: http://www.realvnc.com/mailman/listinfo/vnc-list
