The remote machines are windows boxes, and are administered by people who
are not all that familiar with what they are ding. I want to be able to just
tell them run (for example) vncviewer machine_name:10 and accept multiple
simultaneous connections, each of which will get their own desktop but as a
defined "guest"user.

Does this make it clearer?
