I have been using the free version of VNC for home use for years. I have
been very pleased with it.
I am wondering if in the paid version if I can setup layers of users.
that is to say I would like some to be able to view only and not touch
anything on the server pc. Log in and "look or read ONLY". then have
others by log on be able to have full control.

Thanks,

Hi Mike,

The VNC Personal Edition product supports separate "admin", "viewonly" and default-access passwords. The VNC Enterprise Edition product has full integration with Windows users & groups to provide fine-grained access-control.

HTH,

Yes you can. There are 2 extra modes in EE vnc - windows auth and 2
passwords - view only and full control. In windows auth you can setup
detailed security per user.
