Sure the answer is, 

Oh,,,, but if you would have only searched the list you would have found
that someone else has asked this many times and the answer is. The native
Java viewer doesn't allow for such a thing.
Tightvnc allows you to add and html page with an applet option of password.
But this is unsecure as all you have to do is view source and you have the
password.

So the answer is, if you take the java source, you can build it in yourself.
Otherwise, there is no easy way to do it for the java vncviewer coming from
the server. You could also look into a stand alone java vncviewer to allow
the parameter to be passed in.

Is anyone going to reply to this or not?  Does anyone know how I can
pass in the password programmatically?

I have used the browser access like this:

http://pcname:5800 <http://pcname:5800/>  <http://pcname:5800/>

This takes me to a login page and then I can login of course.

We have several hundred machines here and since no 2 will have the same
password, I was wondering it was possible to pass in the password via
either post or get methods (Form or address bar line).  If anyone could
help me I would be so grateful.
