Hi all

Another issue with the beta version is that the Conection Details dialog,
VNC Server blank does not accept clipboard data. I have a script set up
that tells me the ip of the windows host i am connecting to then launches
vncviewer. I used to be able to select the ip and then paste it into the
VNC Server blank. no longer workie. this is not a BIG issue like my
earlier trouble with the F8 menu, but its something for the community to
possibly fix..

necessity breeds ingenuity.. Old Script
====================
#!/bin/bash
echo -n "when querying 0025745160-JOAN, i recieved "; echo `nmblookup 0025745160-JOAN 
|grep -v tdb|grep -v querying`
vncviewer -shared -bgr233 -encodings "hextile"

New script
====================
#!/bin/bash
vnc `nmblookup -S 0025745160-JOAN |grep -i looking|sed s/Looking\ up\ status\ of\ //`

Now to find out how to give a password to vncviewer on the command line...
any ideas?

example -
$ vncviewer 192.168.0.1 password=deadheadjoe

        During a grouse hunt in North Carolina two intrepid sportsmen
were blasting away at a clump of trees near a stone wall.  Suddenly a
red-faced country squire popped his head over the wall and shouted,
"Hey, you almost hit my wife."
        "Did I?"  cried the hunter, aghast.  "Terribly sorry.  Have a
shot at mine, over there."

"Oh" my new operator calls as I leave, "I can't remember what your backup
tape looked like. Is this it here on the Bulk Eraser?"
