Does any one know if there's any VNC server that authenticate users
on kerberos?
That could solve the problem, only autorized users could access the
VNC on the machine.

Take a look at http://www.vncscan.com too. That's the front end for VNC
that makes it work better.

Hi,
My client's help desk requests for support is growing, with more than
1,000 users its understandable.
We need to find a software (not an outsourced
service) that will permit the technicians to take control of the
user's desktop for support purposes. The user MUST agree to the
technician taking control or even «peeking» at his desktop.
We've looked at a few but my concern is with overall security.
We used to have VNC installed on a few machines a couple of years ago
but we removed it.
Is the latest version of VNC sufficient (security wise)?
Can you share your experience with us please?
Suggestions or comments welcomed.
Thanks!
Marty

Hi list,
Thought the RealVnc Enterprise Edition
(http://www.realvnc.com/products/enterprise/) has some good security
features regarding Authentication (Platform authentication integration,
2048 bits RSA keys...) and 128 bits traffic encryption more on
http://www.realvnc.com/products/features.html, also for a large intranet the
VNC Deployment
Tool(http://www.realvnc.com/products/vnctool/vnctool.pdf) is really useful
and can help establishing an enterprise use policy for the VNC service.
Another product to watch for a secure RDP connection is
SecureRDP(http://69.196.236.103/terminal/securerdp.asp). Also a little
googeling lead me to this
http://www.isaserver.org/articles/Using_NetMeeting_and_the_H323_Gatekeeper_a
s_a_HelpDesk_tool.html
.
Hope this was helpful
Best Regards.
