It is possible for applications to open vncservers that are session
aware. VNCTetrisServer.Mod is an example. Many independant players can
open a game via port 5999 at the same time.

It should open a window asking for the input of the password. This only
works if you are running Oberon in the window manager. (Otherwise the
windows that is opened for the keyboard input is waiting for the
availability of the default window manager that is never loaded)
Note: With the new craz fresh >=2005.7.1 the syntax for the VNC viewer
has slightly changed because the ":" character is used in IPV6 for
address specification. It is replaced by " " (space).
