Geoff, why don't you use a telnet for that. In order to test that VNC server is up and running you can do the following. From a command line execute the command: telnet.exe localhost 5900
If the server is setup correctly you will a VNC server handshake string: RFB XXX.XXX Best regards, Yury SmartCode Solutions WWW: http://www.s-code.com Tel: +1 (650) 276-0434 or +65 91125904 Fax: +1 (801) 904-5158 ---------------------------------------- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, April 03, 2005 3:01 AM To: vnc-list@realvnc.com Subject: LocalHost I'm having a few problems setting up RealVNC to work on a local network, strangely TightVNC worked immediately but I prefer the security settings on RealVNC as I am looking to eventually connect via a VPN connection. Is there a way I can test the set up using localhost or 127.0.0.1, I did try it but just got window after window after window appearing, which is understandable. At the moment I have not got two computers on my adsl/router set up to test it with.
