WinVNC

Administrators Only - WinVNC Server is installed locally on the Thin Client. It allows a
Thin Client to be operated/monitored (shadowed) from a remote machine on which VNC
Viewer is installed. VNC is intended primarily for support and troubleshooting purposes.

VNC Server starts automatically as a service at Thin Client startup. The service can be
stopped/started by using the Services window (Start | Settings | Control Panel |
Administrative Tools | Services).

Note

Be sure to flush the Write Filter during the current system session if you want
to permanently save the state of the service.

.

Caution

The default password permits a remote administrator to configure or reset a
Thin Client from a remote location rather than making a personal appearance
at the Thin Client site. For security, it is highly recommended that the
password be changed immediately upon receipt of the Thin Client.
