New subscriber and just started working with the RealVNC.
I have just installed the latest stable RealVNC download version on a machine (running as a service- not as an application) on a Windows 2000 Pro workstation. This has a DSL connection behind a router. The port is opened and I can attempt a log-in but the desktop screen does not complete before the following error comes up in the viewer of the remote machine:
VNC Viewer: Error Read: Connection reset by peer (10054)
The connection was attempted from a 56K dial-up and the screen would start to display the desktop after user info was supplied but not complete the drawing of the desktop. The remote viewer was adjusted or various levels of colors and items on the options with no success. The remote viewer machine is a Windows 98 SE machine only running at 800x600 (highest resolution capable with hardware in laptop) and the "server" workstation is running at 1024x768 resolution with high color. One post discussed strange colors (pink etc. on the remote machine). I am getting this too, which is only mentioned to help troubleshooting (and is not a major issue unless it is related to the disconnect issue).
I have looked at the archives and found some issues discussed about this but no firm ideas as to why this is happening.
I have attached the only event log with a error code pointing to WinVNC
Event Type: Error Event Source: WinVNC4 Event Category: None Event ID: 1 Date: 12/4/2004 Time: 4:56:16 PM User: N/A Computer: AMD1G Description: SocketManager: unknown network event for listener
All other entries are standard Information listings stating things like connection accepted by IPAddress and connection closed by IPAddress (Timed Out)
All the default settings on the Service were selected including the 3600 for the Disconnect idle clients.
I plan further testing with higher speed connections including just attempting over the local lan, but in the mean time any suggestions
for resolving this?
