I would do the same again because of strong authentication, ease of
installation and configuration, it supports a lot of user connections, you
can run VNC or RDC through the tunnel easily, access to shard files/folders
on the SSH server machine, etc, etc, etc...etc...

You might also look at OpenVPN or SSL-Explorer as alternatives. You can
try a free two user version of SSL-Explorer to try it out. The nice thing
about SSL-Explorer is that any user with a web browser like IE can connect
and access shared files/folders on PCs on your network. So called
clientless access to your network via the SSL VPN. SSL-Explorer also
supports a web based RDC and VNC access to desktop PCs on your network.
Note that SSL-Explorer is *NOT* free if you have more than two users.
OpenVPN is completely free like SSH.

I take it your not running any type of server on your network now, ie. SBS
or W2K3/W2K, etc?

UltraVNC has an encryption plug-in that you can use. Personally for home
users I recommend running VNC (any flavor) or Remote Desktop (RDC)
through a SSH because you can use a private/public key pair protected by
a strong password versus password only authentication. You can run a SSH
server on a XP or Vista desktop or if your router is supported use
third-party firmware like DD-WRT which includes a built-in SSH server
function.

Hello to everyone:

How secure is UVNC vs Windows Remote Desktop Connection.
Should be complemented with ssh or vpn?

What if i have a linkys WiFi router, and does not have vpn feature, how
could i secure the connection ?

Kindest regards

PabloE
