VNC on a dual homed NT Server

[Mark Vinten]

If you read the documentation, you will find documented registry settings
that allow you to ban certain IP ranges from connecting to the VNC server.
You can even block ALL ip address and then included specific ones.

Example
-------
	Nic 1 has network 10.x.x.x
	Nic 2 has network 192.x.x.x

You could setup the registry settings to exclude all ip address, but allow
only 192.x.x.x IP connections.  Thus, you are effectively blocking off all
10.x.x.x ppl from connecting to the VNC server on that NT box.

It doesn't run any different on an NT server. I've been looking for
something like that for a long time. However, now that I think of it, you
can get the same effect by limiting the IP adresses that are allowed to
connect, although you could spoof past that, I guess. Still leaves it
attached to the port however. Anyone know how hard it is (in code) to bind
to a specific NIC only? Anyone know how to do it in general? I've had some
socket programming experience, but don't remember anything about selecting
which NIC/IP (what if a nic's ip changes (dhcp)) to listen() on...

more time w/ the product might answer this one but ..... 

Can I run VNC on a specific NIC in event of a dual homed server ?  My
current install on a Win98 box shows its running on both interfaces by
default and I don't know if it behaves differently on NT.
