Sounds like you have the "Default" password set different than the "User" password. Use the "Show Default Properties" menu item to change them to be the same. It might be best to go into the registry and remove the keys in the user's hive so that only the defaults will be used. Also be sure you are running WinVNC as a service (which since you get Authentication Failed it sounds like you are). -- William Hooper _______________________________________________ VNC-List mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.realvnc.com/mailman/listinfo/vnc-list
