However, I also actually prefer RD. Provides a better, more seamless remote experience.<br clear=all><br>However, to answer the OP's question, I'd take a look at the firewall. As a quick test, you could simple disable the firewall entirely to prove/disprove the theory. If you're new to Win7/Vista, the firewall is considerably more advanced than XP. More complicated, but considerably more flexible once you wrap your brain around it.

The only advantage I could find was that you could see what the user was doing when there was a problem. That was the good point & the bad point. The ability to actually watch a patron (though I have way more to do than sit & watch what a patron is doing) was considered as too much of a possible problem. I agree. Remote desktop can do anything that I want. I can log on as the patron or admin. I have UAC set to ask for passwords so……..that’s no problem. If it was just me, I would still use remote desktop and not VLC. Don’t get me wrong VLC is a good product & I like it. I just think that you might be better served with Remote Desktop.</span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'> </span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'><span style='font-size:10.5pt;font-family:Consolas'>Dan Will</span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'><span style='font-size:10.5pt;font-family:Consolas'><img border=0 width=182 height=36 id="_x0000_i1025" src="cid:image001.png@01CD844E.81195910" alt="Description: logo"></span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'><span style='font-size:10.5pt;font-family:Consolas'>Technology Supervisor</span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"'><a href="mailto:willda@oplin.org" target="_blank"><span style='font-size:10.5pt;font-family:Consolas'>willda@oplin.org</span></a></span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'><span style='font-size:10.5pt;font-family:Consolas'><a href="tel:740.992.5813" target="_blank">740.992.5813</a></span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'><span style='font-size:10.5pt;font-family:Consolas'><a href="tel:740.992.6140" target="_blank">740.992.6140</a> (fax)</span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'><span style='font-size:10.5pt;font-family:Consolas'> </span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"'>“When you are growing up there are two institutional places that affect you most powerfully: </span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"'>the church that belongs to God and the public library that belongs to you. </span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"'>The public library is the great equalizer.” </span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"'>Keith Richards</span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'> </span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'> </span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'> </span><o:p></o:p></p><div><div style='border:none;border-top:solid #B5C4DF 1.0pt;padding:3.0pt 0in 0in 0in'><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'><b><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif"'>From:</span></b><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif"'> <a href="mailto:oplintech-bounces@lists.oplin.org" target="_blank">oplintech-bounces@lists.oplin.org</a> <a href="mailto:[mailto:oplintech-bounces@lists.oplin.org]" target="_blank">[mailto:oplintech-bounces@lists.oplin.org]</a> <b>On Behalf Of </b>R Young<br><b>Sent:</b> Monday, August 27, 2012 10:35 AM<br><b>To:</b> OPLINTECH<br><b>Subject:</b> [OPLINTECH] vnc and win 7</span><o:p></o:p></p></div></div><div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'> <o:p></o:p></p><div><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'>is anyone out there using vnc with windows 7?
