I have to agree with this. the -shared option is really cool. The default for
the system is to kick out anyone if a non-shared connection tries to take place.

The easiest way to set this up is to modify a shortcut Icon to the vncviewer and
add the -shared switch there. This way it always gets run with the shared switch
in place. You can also get to this as a checkbox option when you try to connect
with the viewer.

Also, I believe it is possible to tell the server to accept ONLY shared
connections (might have to be a registry hack to do it). This would ensure that
no one kills everyone elses connection because their viewer isn't set up right.
