Sure,

Try ultra vnc. There is an option on their toolbar (custom bar) to blank
the screen  and block input at will.

Subject: RE: VNC Question

Can't seem to get an answer on my question, and this appears to be as
close
as I am going to get.  Please assist. I do NOT want the end user
(SERVER) to
have the ability to do ANYTHING on their end when I (ADMIN) go into
their
machine.  Only problem here is that when I put the 'AllowProperties'
into
the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE it kills my ability to do anything after getting
into
their machine.  The great thing is it does kill THEIR ability to stop
anything I do.  The downside (unless I am doing something wrong) is when
I
put it in the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE area it kills MY ability after being
able
to see their screen of doing ANYTHING on their machine.  Can you help.
This
would be a great help.

Thanks for the response.  I looked in the archives and couldn't find an
answer which fit the issue.  I looked at the URL you provided in your
answer and conclude that the answer to my question is no - the URL
provided info about performing inbound VNC connection restrictions based
upon source IP address.  I want to know if VNC will provide a pop-up
question like SMS that the end-user can answer in the affirmative or
negative to allow or disallow an admin to take remote control of their
PC.

Look at QuerySetting, QueryTimeout, and AuthHosts.

This has also been asked and answered in the archives.
