how to prompt local console only when somebody is logged in?

[Brachmann Shaun]

The Enterprise version of RealVNC has NTLM, plus some cool logging and other
stuff.

Yes, I'm going to love this feature.  All the more reason to upgrade to 4.0
now.

And all since I didn't spend the time to create a .reg file to run after the
install... It's too bad the user setting use from service feature has been
removed though.  Is there a way to turn it on?

Also I'd love to see NTLM auth in VNC.  I heard that Ultra has it, but I
haven't tried it.
