Hi Patrick,

Thanks, I now have it working.

I have an administrative password set so nobody else can change the setting=
s. Is a person able to "Disconnect All Viewers" without the password, or ev=
en just disconnect one viewer?

Hi,

I=92ve set up TightVNC server, but currently the client can connect
whenever the remote computer is active and without the remote user
knowing. I need the remote user to be able to approve or deny each
connection request.

The idea is that the client should only connect when they=92re allowed
to and with the remote user=92s consent.

Can TightVNC do that?

George
