Why don't you use Remote Desktop Protocol?
PRO:
-much faster
- win 200 (Server) and xp (prof. and server) and up have the server already installed
- more secure
- really integrated in the host OS (windows)
- on win server you can login on the monitor and remote with different sessions (and screens)
CON:
- it' s from microsoft ( ;-))
- the server only runs on windows
I use rdp for all my win-Servers and Clients and VNC for my linux systems to do remote administration (with my N770).
Here is a small howto:
To enable the server to accept logins:
1. start - settings - systems - remote
REMOTEDESKTOP
Select which user could use RDP.
Than you need to tunnel or to map port 3389
On the nokia 770 / 800 install rdesktop (it's a linux / free rdp-Client)
- start a network connection
- Run rdesktop and enter
Your Server name or ip, username, password and hit OK
You should see the screen of your PC (on win prof. the user who is logged in will be logged out).
The onsceen-keyboard from the nokia 770 will not work within rdesktop.
BUT: You could use the onscreen-keyboard from windows by clicking:
Start - Accessory - Input Assistence - Onscreen Keyboard
(something like that: I use a german WinXP installation).
I hope it will help you
