Title: Re: [Echovnc-users] Connection closed unexpectedly
Yep, that was it, at least for 3.3.7 at my end.
 
Anyone with same problem, to enable loopback for VNC (on Windows) needs a registry entry:
 
On the registry editor, under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ORL\WinVNC3 add a REG_DWORD with Name="AllowLoopback" and Value="1" (decimal, or 0x00000001 in hex)
Then restart the VNC server. The server should now allow loopback connections.
 
Thanks!

        Ah; sorry: if you're using 3.3.7, you'll need to set it up the
server to "allow loopback connections". That setting was off in
the older versions of VNC; in most of the newer flavors (RealVNC
4.x, TightVNC 1.2.9) it's on by default.

        Sorry for not spotting this sooner. :)
