I have a laptop running WinXP Home Edition - SP2 talking (wireless) via a D-Link ADSL
router (a combined Router, Firewall, WAP and ADSL modem) to my PC running WinXP
Professional/Media Centre Edition - SP2 (via an Ethernet connection). I can ping all
the machines successfully either way.
I have disabled the XP firewalls on the Laptop and PC. I also have Norton Internet
Security installed and disable on both machines.
My Laptop is running VNC Server and the PC is running VNC Client.
Basically I'm trying to get the VNC software to work on "my" side of the D-Link
firewall before I try and access the machines via the Internet and through my gateway.
One step at a time so to speak.
However I am experiencing the same problems as Matt Schutz is having (mailing list
item date 23-09-04) - same subject as this post).
Having duplicated the problem I've looked at the Applications Event Log for the
WinVNC4 error; this gave a fault description of "Socket Manager: unknown event for
listener".
To the best of my knowledge all firewalls are disabled at my LAN side of the gateway,
The machines are talking to each other successfully, I'm configuring the server for
port 5900 (I've also tried 5901) and I'm referencing the corresponding port when
running the client.
Any thoughts anyone 'cos I don't know where else to turn at this moment???
If its any help I'm very new to the VNC software being a first time user.
Thanks in anticipation.
Tony Frost
