RE: remote desktop question

Whenever I use Terminal Services (a.k.a Remote Desktop) I establish an ssh
session and use the port forwarding feature
to tunnel the ts session thru.

Subject: remote desktop question


hi,

this might be a stupid question but, is there any encryption used with
remote desktop.  also, if there is not is there any products (free or low
cost) that i can use to protect my remote desktop connections, such as vpn,
and what is the best way to set it up?

thanks

Scott
