#168745 - The VNC offerings
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Checked out the TightVNC and it looks it will meet my needs and best is it under the GPL licence.

But was also surprised to find so many VNCs ! Real VNC, Tight VNC, Ultra VNC. Of the lot the Real VNC have made the free edition a real bare bone stuff. And Ultra VNC seems to be targetting the geeks - many of the settings were pretty tough for me.

The Tight VNC seemed a good choice as its free, simple to configure and has the facility to bring in additional security if one needs. I really wonder if I need the SSH security for my intended job of remote updates and diagnostics of my own application. What joy is it for anyone to read my code ? Or is it to ensure that some nut does not hack the link ??
