Someone here has both a PC running WinXP Pro SP2 and a Mac running
Mac OS X 10.3.9. On the PC, she has vncviewer v4.1.1 installed and a VNC
document pointing to her Mac. Locally, this VNC document works fine. When
she accesses the PC remotely via RDP and tries to access her Mac with the same
VNC document, the Mac screen seems to appear, but it's completely black and
only presents a small square white outline as a pointer. No amount of mouse
movement (which does cause the small square icon to move) or refreshing seems
to do any good and the black screen seems to be "stuck" as the only thing
provided by the Mac. On the Mac, we have Apple's Remote Desktop Client [sic]
v2.2 configured to provide access via VNC. On the PC, fast user switching and
the welcome screen are both disabled. I have confirmed this behavior on an
identical software configuration (albeit with slightly different hardware).
Is there an explanation for this behavior? Is there a way to fix it so that
the Mac's display is accessible via the RDP path?
Thanks,
Mike
