Thanks for the reply William. I've tried to connect to http://myhost:5806 and after about a minute I get an error message about "Cannot find server". To avoid issues with the DNS I've also used the URL in the connection to the host like http://123.456.789.0:5806 with no success.
I have a web server running om myhost and I can connect to http://myhost:80 with no problems. Again if I connect to http://myhost:5906, at least it respond back with 'RFB 003.003'. Useless, but a response never the less. I'm a bit lost here....

Anybody have any ideas? You are missing the documentation: http://www.realvnc.com/javavncviewer.html "The server listens for HTTP connections on port 5800+display number. So to view display 2 on machine 'snoopy', you would point your web browser at: http://snoopy:5802/ The applet will prompt you for your password, and should then display the desktop." You need to connect to http://myhost:5806. -- William Hooper _______________________________________________ VNC-List mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] To remove yourself from the list visit: http://www.realvnc.com/mailman/listinfo/vnc-list EOM NOTICE - This message and any attached files may contain information that is confidential and/or subject of legal privilege intended only for use by the intended recipient.
