Greg,

VNC Enterprise Edition supports authentication against local user accounts,
rather than by VNC password, and allows different access rights to be
granted to different users & groups.  It also provides a special "guest"
mode allowing users without accounts on the system to connect with the level
of rights you choose to allow them.  This sounds like it'd do what you
want... :)

Regards,

Wez @ RealVNC Ltd.
