Hi Roger,
It sounds like you're looking for something like VNC Enterprise Edition
(http://www.realvnc.com/products/enterprise), which allows users to
authenticate to the VNC Server using full Windows, NT Domain or Active
Directory credentials. It also provides full in-built session security,
which is probably something you want if you're allowing remote access to
systems by vendors.
Cheers,
Wez @ RealVNC Ltd
