Does anyone have physical access to the XP box? In Windows the display
shown by VNC is the same display shown on the monitor. So if a monitor
is connected to the box, all your actions can be seen and the kbd/mouse
attached to the box can be used for input.

Subject: weird behavior

I have VNC server 4.1.2 installed on a remote machine running XP. I have
used it for a few months and it has worked great. But recently, whenever
I connect to this machine using the VNC Client, after sometime, it seems
like someone else sneaks in and starts running the command prompt. I
have to kill the VNC server to stop any damages. One time, I stayed on
long enough to see that an "ftp" command was getting typed on the
command prompt. I have set up the server with password authentication.

Has anyone else seen this behavior? Any help or pointers will be greatly
appreciated.
