Thanks all, I tried everything suggested, and so far nothing has worked.

That is, I get prompted for password, and after carefully entering password, nothing happens. > Did you open Ports 1723 and 47 on your router? Yes, I did, and same result.

What version is the VNC Server running? No, I haven't. How do I change encoding modes? I'm using version 3.3.6 of both server and client. > Lastly, try dialing down the MUTE on your Win2k PC.

Since the client machine is at home, I won't be able to try it until I get home tonight. I will try and let you know if that works. Thanks for all the suggestions and helps. If anyone can think of other things to try, please let me know. -- Emi > I'm having this problem.
