The security will be provided by the VPN security you set up.
After that, the person has to know the computer name or IP address of the
computer and the VNC password and then the network user name and password to
log in to the computer.
Seems to me that as long as you allow a VPN into the network, you are not
exposing much more risk.
It seems like the same security risk as allowing a VPN to the network and
then a Terminal Server session.

Subject: [windows2000] VNC
Some folks here want to use VNC for remote access to their machines (after
connecting to the network via VPN). I am concerned about security. And as I
am not that familiar with VNC - can it be locked down and controlled from an
administrative point of view?
Which version would be preferred from a security standpoint? As an example -
I see TightVNC and VNC.
Any feedback would be appreciated.
Christoph
