   I'm assuming that you're talking about WinVNC, here.  You can't do
this with the standard version.  I had produced a patch to the source
to add a new option which would do this, but I did it for someone
else, who actually compiled the modified version, as I do not have the
tools needed to do so here.  Also, he and I had to work out several
compilation problems, so I'm not sure if the patch, as I have it,
would work right away, though I could probably fix it based on the
messages I exchanged with him (which I've got around here somewhere).
In any case, let me know if you're interested in the patch.
