while we're on the topic of remote administration and vnc, lemme give
another tip.
<tip type="Server Admin: VNC" author=".jeff">
if you have multiple servers that you administrate remotely via vnc, then
here's a tip to help you make your life easier. create a shortcut to the
vncviewer for each server. give each of these shortcuts an appropriate
name. go into the properties of the shortcut and add a switch to the target
value for the server name/ip, and whether or not you wish to use 8-bit
display. you're full target should look like this (where server_name is the
name/ip of the server):
"C:\Program Files\VNC\vncviewer.exe" server_name -8bit
when clicking the shortcut, instead of getting a dialogue asking you which
server you want to connect to, you'll get the password prompt. key it in
and away you go.

enjoy,
