Hi there,
I apologize if the answer to this question is staring me right in the
face in some FAQ or so, but I haven't been able to find it.
We have two Windows boxes connecting to each other in a test lab
(W2k3 server sp1 and Windows XP sp1.) Both are running evaluation
copies of RealVNC4 enterprise edition.
I am trying to find out the following:
1) whether there is a possibility of authenticating to a VNC server
using an x.509 certificate (in our case from a smart card)
2) whether it's possible to use certificate-based NT domain
credentials to log directly in through the GINA on the target system
(we cannot get this working for some reason; we selected 'single sign-
on' in the VNC server configuration menu, but we still get the
server's login GINA window.) Does it matter whether this runs as a
Windows service or in user mode?
3) whether there is provision, existing or planned, for forwarding a
local PCSC channel to a VNC server the way RDP does
stunnel is not an option (we don't care about authenticating the
underlying connection, but the actual user interaction with either
the MS GINA or, failing that, the VNC server.)
Basically we're trying to see if there's a way a user can start a VNC
session to a Windows domain controller and authenticate himself to
Windows on the target system with a smart card/certificate issued for
Windows domain login.
Any help/tips appreciated; is what we're trying to do totally off the
wall?
Thanks,
-John
