Appendix A, Saving Connections
This appendix explains how to save connections so you can quickly connect to favorite host computers again with just a few mouse clicks.
If you are using fully-featured VNC Viewer, you can save connections to VNC Address Book. VNC Address Book remembers network addresses, user names, and passwords (in encrypted form) so you do not have to, and automatically recreates your preferred VNC Viewer working environment each time you connect.
If you are using fully-featured or standalone VNC Viewer, you can save connections to icons on the client computer’s desktop. You cannot save connections if you are connecting from a web browser.
Note: For more information on differences between VNC Viewer in different modes, see VNC Enterprise Edition 4.5 connectivity.
