MS Logon - administrator user access?

Post by dsmcd01 »

Hello...

Am I correct that if the VNC server requires MS Logon, that only users with admistrator level access can be used in the VNC logon prompt?

If so, why?

TIA,
D.

No, you can add people with rights to use VNC to the local machine's VNCACCESS group. Actually, the rules are more complex than that, but that's the way I do it.

No,

Local admin has always access..

But you can define your own local or domain group that also has access. (this option was added to the later versions)
If you don't have the button in the properties [MS] you need to upgrade .

The only problem is that when you run vnc as service, the permission for filetransfer have service (admin) access.
Unless you trust the people you need to disable file access when giving a non admin acess. If you don't have NTFS, it does not make a difference...FAT has no file level security.
