I, personally (origional post) wasn't actually complaining nor commenting on the quality of the NAV product.
My only point was to alert people that this product NAV 5 should be considered as a "firewall" for the purposes of supporting VNC. Maybe it came off a little harsher than I ment. It does block VNC, it does do it by default, it can be configured (easily) to allow vnc to work correctly. --Angelo On Wed, 13 Oct 2004 08:04:02 -0400, Jim Trawick <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I take it you're new to Google. > > <http://forums.novell.com/group/novell.support.netware.client.win9x/readerNoFrame.tpt/@[EMAIL > PROTECTED]@[EMAIL PROTECTED]@D-,[EMAIL PROTECTED]/@[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > <http://computercops.biz/postt75793.html> > <http://www.broadbandreports.com/forum/remark,11509815~mode=flat> > <http://www.winnetmag.com/windowsnt20002003faq/Article/ArticleID/44191/windowsnt20002003faq_44191.html> > > ...to name just a few. > > Beta for two months?
