Accept two passwords? Or run on two ports?

I'd like my UltraVNC server to accept two different passwords. (It's being used by two different users and their passwords are unknown to each other.)

Is it possible to do one of the following?

1) Configure a single instance of UltraVNC to accept one of two separate passwords

2) Run two instances of UltraVNC (e.g. one on port 5900 and one on port 5901), configured with different passwords?

I can't figure out how to do either one.

Thanks!

UltraVnc support MS passwords.
You can have as many passwords you want, and that way you also log the user who makes connection

Can I configure the same in Linux?

You cannot configure MS-Logon authentication in the vnc server on linux

But you can use the ultravnc Java viewer to access a ms-logon secured ultravnc server on Windows from a linux box

Thanks!
But how about to configure the same vnc server feature in Linux? I understand it is meaningless to use MS-Logon authentication in Linux. But I want to know whether there is another way to configure it in Linux.

UltraVNC is Windows-only.
You can check http://www.realvnc.com or http://www.tightvnc.com/ for vnc versions for linux.

Seems somebody modified the linux viewer for mslogon

Can someone try it and confirm it works ?
