Re: Enterprise Manager

John,

I agree that some tools aren't good on the server. OEM doesn't do any harm when its not in use. Its nice to have around during maintenance periods - when you don't care that all of those power units are going to jre.exe. The thing that I like least about terminal services is that the service shows up in a browser format on other W2K servers in the domain - like on a Citrix Server.
So any yahoo on the network with domain admin owns the Oracle Box desktop.
Your WinVNC password is your own.
not that there aren't brute-force attacks for VNC (there are), but no one should use VNC outside of a secured LAN.
