Re: [TCLUG:22070] Back Orifice vs VNC

Don't know about BO, but VNC is an actuall X server under *NIX. In windows,
BO and VNC do pretty much the same thing, but VNC tells you what it does and
has an uninstaller and other nifty stuff. Even runs as a NT service so you
can login via vnc instead of having to go to the workstation and login
(maybe BO will do this?) It's also rather easy to forward VNC over ssh. The
above could be true of BO as well, but I've never used BO and don't really
care to.
