I have setup a terminal VNC server, and half-documented the way I did it at http://oxo.rucus.net/docs/Terminal-Vnc-HOWTO I am the sysadmin of a multi-user box and I am doing this for the plebs who are members of the computer society (RUCUS http://rucus.ru.ac.za/). What I want is an easy way of making vnc connections secure. The machine is firewalled from outside the LAN, but obviously not from inside it. I still don't like unencrypted data flowing over the network. For my own use, I use ssh tunnels to do the encryption, but that is far beyond your Random Joe Fuc^WUser. How can I make the connections over vnc secure? I would prefer not to delve into the source code, but will if I have to.
