Folks-

Many thanks to CBee for the informative response! I now understand
how to do this with the existing javaviewer.

However, this seems to me to be a rather lot of extra work. Wouldn't
it make more sense to enhance the java viewer to accept the normal
command line options as part of the URL? I would expect to be able
to do something like this:

http://mymachine.lucent.com:5800/index.vnc?depth=8&viewonly&fullscreen

Providing this ability would make things a lot easier (IMHO).

Thanks

-Craig
