R: VNC viewer 3.3.7 for Windows shows no password prompt

[Livio Curzola]

Jan,

I do not have any experience with OSXvnc for Mac OS 10 but as far as Win32
VNCServer is concerned (version 4.0b4), there exists the option "No
Authentication or Encryption": whenever this option is checked there is no
request for password when a viewer tries to connect to the server. I think
you should look for something similar at your server side.

Oggetto: VNC viewer 3.3.7 for Windows shows no password prompt

Hello,

Today I downloaded VNC viewer 3.3.7 for Windows and copied it to my C drive.
I made contact to my server which is OSXvnc for Mac OS 10. There I 
made a password. But when I started the VNC viewer it didn't ask for 
a password. So anybody who downloads the VNC viewer has access to my 
computer. That's not what I want.
Can someone explain this to me/
