Mark, Just a subtle difference. The thing that is incompatible with VNC is Remote DESKTOP not Remote ASSISTANCE, and Remote Desktop is only present in the Pro version of XP, I think. If you have XP Home you don't need to worry about it.
You can turn either Remote feature on or off by going to 'Properties' of 'My Computer' then clicking on the 'Remote' tab. If you have XP Pro it will display settings for both 'Remote Assistance' and 'Remote Desktop'. Just clear the box(es) to prevent users from using renote Assistance and/or 'Remote Desktop' Alan. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Mark Scaringelli Sent: Friday, January 21, 2005 10:07 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Windows XP Home I have an SMC Barricade router that dynamically assigns IP addresses to three machines running Windows XP w/SP2 and one running Windows 2000. I noted in the documentation for vnc that I should disable fast user switching and remote administration. I was able to disable the fast user switching but I do not know where to disable the remote administration. Can anyone help? Also, I noted in one post an instruction to disable the XP firewall since the router firewall was sufficient/better. Is this correct?
