- cases 1&2 are probably more mainstream and more important for novice users,
|

so KRfb is pre-configured for them. Case 3 is for advanced users and
|

therefore a little bit more difficult to configure.
|

- design goal of KRfb is to make it as easy to use as possible. I tried to

limit functionality whereever possible.

quite complicated and I can only hope that it works.

- most limitations and problems of KRfb are caused either by limitations of
|

Rfb (for example no proper authentication of users, no encryption) or
|

by lack of a framework in KDE or Linux in general (no discovery of running
|

KRfb servers, no way to connect through a NAT device). In the next months I am going
|
||||
to concentrate on improving the latter.

Change the following files when releasing a new version:
