[K12OSN] Logging onto the server from a windows machine

[John P. Conlon]

VNC is nice unless the security program on the Windows machine will not 
allow you to access anything except certain given file types and those 
needed for VNC are not among them.  If I could do it with a browser I 
could probably make that work.  If I knew how.
Thanks
Pat
