You will, however, need to download two programs: a SSH client and a VNC client. The SSH client will make a secure connection between your computer and the VNC server and the VNC client will use this connection to draw a display on your screen. text/html 2015-08-26T21:09:31+00:00 Anonymous (anonymous@undisclosed.example.com) https://www.cs.vassar.edu/old_pages/logs?rev=1440623371&do=diff System Status Workstations Problem, Tues 12/17 System CS129 in OLB104 had a power supply issue.
