I was experimentig with Cygnus. I currently have a sshd working as service.
But I don't understand Cygnus. So, my question is, is there an easy way to
install sshd, e.g. from the setup of VNC? I started reading about Cygnus and
found that one only has to install one (or some more?) DLL files and the ported
binary of sshd. I probably have to read more about Cygnus.

So, if we had SSH on all needed platforms (maybe Macintosh is problem) I
could imagine that to use SSH would be easier than incorporating any other
encryption into VNC. Although I would never mind to have it all packed together in
one nice binary!

Still a question... is it really necessary to have a sshd running on the
destination host? Can't I make two SSH clients talk to each other with some
tricky configuration? Probably not...
