Hi

I need to control a Windows 7 PC via VNC from a Mac in an office LAN. Since the IPs are dynamically assigned, I'd like the PC to appear in my "Places" and in the automatically detected nearby servers in VNC client I'm using -- both of which require the PC to advertise its VNC server via Samba (right?).

I tried installing ultravnc, which works when I access it directly by IP, but it doesn't seem to advertise itself in the network.

Any ideas?
