restrict access to specific IP

[Steve Russo]

 Below is for WinXX I would believe. For GNU Linux systems, you can use the
/etc/hosts.accept and /etc/hosts.deny. A better way to do this for GNULS is
to use a firewall though. IPCHAINS is built right in so just get a good
firewall builder (Like Mason). If you need to find Mason, search for it on:

Yes!

Take a look at the AuthHosts setting. You will want something like:
-:+123.345.789.012

The '-' denies access to all addresses. The +...  grants access to that
specific IP. You can also enter it as a pattern:

-:+172.16
This will grant access to all 172.16.x.x addresses.

The setting goes under: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ORL\WinVNC3

Enjoy,

-Steve

Is it possible to grant access to VNC server only to specific computer
(base
on their IP) ?
