3. When VNC is also limited (at the SERVER side) to 8bit, it becomes very
fast as well.
4. Checking the "Restrict to 8 bit depth" on the VIEWER will not result in
as much of a speedup as changing the SERVER depth to 8bit.  It is still
useful over slow links, but it increases the server CPU load and thus slows
down overall frame rate over a good link.

OK, I've check the docs and I've checked the default settings on a running
machine, and I'm obviously missing something vital - how do I get the WinVNC
server to run in 8 bit depth, and run as a service (NT machine)??
