At least use TightVNC - VNC is no longer suppoorted or developed by AT&T
and it has as many security holes as WinXP, IMHO    -;)

http://www.tightvnc.com/
http://freshmeat.net/projects/tightvnc/?topic_id=253%2C150
http://sourceforge.net/projects/vnc-tight

BTW, we used to use VNC at work and it works well; just like what you are
looking for. I shut the VNC services off; since I have yet to upgrade them
to TightVNC, or get the approval to do so.
