Check the archives. I think VNC Scan is one. I believe RealVNC may have
an app that'll do it as well. Looking at their site, it appears that
it's only available in the Enterprise version. You might also try a
Google search on "VNC Remote Deploy" or something like that.

Do you have any links or anything, or at least a good term to search on?

There are a couple apps that will let you remotely install VNC from a
master machine, however, you will have to have admin priveleges to do
this, of course.

Hi all, I administer a few hundred pc's for the state DOT in Arizona. We
were looking into VNC because we have a small group of Macs.  But I have
to say, Real VNC is a very cool product.  We've been using Dameware, and
VNC is much cleaner, much more efficient.  But I searched all over the
site and couldn't find any info on whether or not there is a way for you
to connect to a client without the server software installed. Does that
make sense?  For example, I would like to know if it's possible to use
the viewer to try and connect to a client, without first installing the
server software.  So that when you connect to the client it
automatically installs the server service for you.

I take it this would be a big security risk, but does anyone know of a
way to configure the options and distribute this program across a large
network... or am I going to have use built msi's from Microsoft?
