Sometimes you just need VNC on a PC, either to spy on someone, or to step someone thru a problem.
I Often get phone calls where you need to look at what the user is doing in order to figure out what they are doing wrong.
for this example, there is the Server, where VNC will be installed, and the Client, this is where you will run the VNC Viewer from.
Initial Build
From the client, download VNC ( i use TightVNC for some reason) and install as normal to c:\program files\TightVNC
Setup it up listening, and set a password.
go to its registry key, something like HKLM\software\orl\vnc or HKLM\software\tightvnc and extract that key to the tightVNC folder (call it tightvnc.reg)
Each PC
Copy the whole tightvnc folder to the server (\\server\c$\program files\tightvnc)
PSEXEC to the server, psexec -s \\server cmd.exe
install VNC on the server via the command line, "c:\program files\TightVNC\winvnc -install" (or --install or install)
import reg settings on the server, password and pref's etc, "reg import c:\program files\tightvnc\tightvnc.reg"
start the winvnc service on the server, "net start winvnc"
Exit PSEXEC, "exit"
Now from he Client, open c:\program files\tightvnc\vncviewer.exe and connect to the server, the password will be what you setup on the initial client
