Please add a password switch to reverse connect of the regular winvnc command line

vnc server reverse connection to repeater
winvnc -autoreconnect ID:1234 -connect 192.168.1.101::5900 -password
or
vnc server reverse connection direct to vnc viewer
winvnc -connect 192.168.1.101::5900 -password

or

optional checkbox on vnc server admin properties to force authentication for reverse connection

this solution would force classic vnc server to just prompting password request to vnc viewer for connect on ID known and easy hacked from someone remember your ID number (security broken)

That block easy hacking even restricted ID number allowed on repeater.
