This sounds like RealVNC, given that version number. They are
unfortunately not very interested in interoperability so I think you're
out of luck using any other client than their own.

There is a standardised encryption called VeNCrypt though that many of
the other VNC implementations support. So try one of those servers
instead and you get a bit more choice in clients.

[rfbproto] RFB : No matching security types

[bori...@bluewin.ch]

Hello
It is my first post on this mailing list. I came here due to the following 
issue.
I am trying to connect to a VNC server running on a Windows desktop for 
maintenance / support reasons.
I am using vncviewer on a CentOS Linux Desktop, coming from the last update of 
the official package of CentOS 6.5, which is tigervnc version 1.1.0.
On Windows side a VNC server is being used, with the encryption option "always 
on".
When attempting a remote connection from CentOS, I get the following error 
message :
TigerVNC Viewer for X version 1.1.0 - built Feb  4 2014 05:24:41
Copyright (C) 1999-2011 TigerVNC Team and many others (see README.txt)
See http://www.tigervnc.org for information on TigerVNC.

 CConnection: Server supports RFB protocol version 4.1
 CConnection: Using RFB protocol version 3.8
 CConnection: No matching security types
 main:No matching security types
So, according to this error message, it seems that the current version of 
vncviewer is not up to date, at least regarding the RFP protocol version.
Any suggestion, how to proceed ? (of course my goal is still to use an 
encrypted VNC connection).
Thanks a lot in advance for your suggestions.
Best regards
Boris
