VNC Setup Windows 98se

[Milford F. Plaines]

Simon I'm just using it for personal use.  I will be the only person that
will be connecting and on occasion I will use it to troubleshoot other Pc's.
It will not be running all the time so there is no threat to my network.

Forgive me if I make an arse of myself, I've only just joined this list as
we are featuring an article on VNC in our next issue, but considering the
security implications of access to your desktop from outside, is it such a
good idea to have people logging into your VNC Server?
