Hi, I've been using vncviewer 0.90 on Linux quite happily for a while, and I was trying to replicate what I did on a Windows XP box. I simply copied the password file over and ran the exact same command line that I use successfully on Linux: vncviewer.exe 192.168.0.100::16000 PasswordFile=Z:\16000.pass
The viewer just pops up the authentication dialog... On the server, all I see is this: Mon Oct 5 21:49:42 2009 Connections: accepted: 192.168.0.101::1393 SConnection: Client needs protocol version 3.8 SConnection: Client requests security type VncAuth(2) If I then cut&paste the password from this file into the box I get: Mon Oct 5 21:57:37 2009 SConnection: AuthFailureException: Authentication failure Connections: closed: 192.168.0.101::1393 (Authentication failure) So it looks to me like vncviewer.exe does not honour the "PasswordFile=" option (I've tried with single/double dashes and without..), and that something is wrong with the authentication? For reference, the server is started with: Xvnc :110 --rfbport=16000 --PasswordFile=/home/antoine/Shared/16000.pass Server is v0.90 and Linux client works with both 0.90 and 1.00, I've only tried the 1.00 client for Windows, but since authentication is part of the RFB protocol, the version should not matter, right? Any ideas? Thanks Antoine ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Come build with us!
