Oh, sorry... didn't read your email closely enough to realize you were
connecting FROM *nix TO Win2k. Yeah... you're correct, the "vncconfig" is
the server-helper object.

Thank you for the reply. However, that didn't seem to
do it. vncconfig won't run. The error message it gives
me is: "No VNC extension on display :0.0". I suppose
that vncconfig is a server helper and I'm on the
viewer side having problems. (I can paste from the
server/win2k/v3.3.7 machine back to the
client/unix/v4.1.1 machine, but not from client to
server.)

I've been lazy and have not yet tried upgrading the
server/win2k/v3.3.7 side. I will try that (sometime)
and report back. More ideas are welcome though. 

K.C.
