[NTLK] Res of 2100 screen and more?

What is the res of the 2100 screen? and can the servers desktop be sized to fit the screen?

For example if the newton is 320x240 (not correct) then a 640x480 window (scaled) would display as full screen).... Is t=
his something possible in the future? I'm use to commerical solutions like Timbuktu (which has this feature and remote d=
esktop). Only tried VNC once on my OS X beta machine with some success.

Thanks for listening to my stupidness. Hopefully someone will have answers! =3D-)

Cheers
John Fraser

Did install the server on my NT box, then Steve's client on my 2100 and
connected at my 3rd attempt. Don't know what was wrong, probably not
configured properly.

Anyway, it's fantastic! Works very well. There are a few glitches here and
there, specially pointer "ghosts" when you move the cursor, but that's
pretty much it. Also, if you bring up any window or pane in front of the
display and then dismissed it, the area that was covered is not refreshed.
Not a big problem but thought I should mention it anyway...

I haven't configured any virtual desktop, but if someone has some way of
using Steve's client more effectively, I'm ready to listen.

The hardest thing right now is to move on the NT box screen. It currently
displays 1024 X 768, so it's a bit hard to move onto the screen.

All in all, a very great tool! I can't wait to use this with the upcoming
WaveLan driver!
