-The OPIE VNC Viewer allows you to connect to servers that are compatible with
+The &opie; VNC Viewer allows you to connect to servers that are compatible with
the Remote Frame Buffer (RFB) protocol, most commonly used by the VNC remote
access software.

<section><title>Adding a bookmark</title>
<para>
To add a new bookmark to your bookmark list, lick the New icon on the
window's toolbar. The "VNC Viewer Connection" dialog will appear. Enter the
hostname or IP address of the computer you would like to connect to in the
"Host Name" field. In the "Display Number" field, enter the number of the
display you would like to connect to. If you are connecting to a Windows or
Mac OS server, you typically select display 0. Unix servers typically use
display 1 or higher. You must also enter the password for the server you
would like to connect to if it requires one. If you are having difficulties
entering the password, you can select "Show Password" to show the password
you are entering. You must also add a descriptive name for the bookmark if
you would like it to be saved. You can then either select the OK button to
save the bookmark and connect to the server, or the cancel button to return
to the bookmark list.

<section><title>Advanced Connection Options</title>
<para>
In addition to the display number, hostname, and password, you can choose many
advanced options from the "VNC Viewer Connection" dialog box that will affect
the performance of the connection.
</para>
<para>
On the options tab you can set the delay in between requesting updates to the
screen, a higher value will result in a more up to date screen, but you will
use more bandwidth. You can also choose to restrict your connection to 8 bit
color, which is much faster than using the color depth of the remote server
at the cost of image quality. Requesting a shared session tells the RFB server
that you are willing to let other users connect at the same time. You can use
the scaling factor on fit more of the remote screen into the space available on
your PDA, if you are willing to accept the performance hit involved in the
scaling.
</para>
<para>
The Encodings tab allows you to select which of the supported encodings you would
would like the VNC Viewer to use to communicate with the remote server. In most
cases you don't need to modify anything on this tab.
