SP6 problems? More like a benefit IMO

I too experienced what I considered to be a problem with sp6 and VNC, but
after a bit of thought, its actually a good thing.  The only way I can run
VNCView is with admin privs, but the server seems to work for everyone
without problems.  I am running 3.3.2r6 and 3.3.3 on about 50 machines
(slowly migrating to sp6), and MacVNC on 5 others.  The fact that *users*
cannot fire up VNC viewer if they feel nosey is, in my mind, a "Good Thing".
I have noticed, however that the java viewer still works through a browser,
so maybe its not all sweetness & light!

On a different note, and one for my VNC 'wish list', some way to store a
table of machines (like the MRU, but permanent  and editable). Currently I
do this by having shortcuts to my machines in a folder, which is not an
ideal solution.  I am not a programmer (batch files not included) so I
havent a clue how this could be done...


Cheers!
