Have you tried changing the password? vnc server lets you see the list of vnc viewers connected to it. I think if you right click on the vnc icon in the system tray (of the XP machine) you can find the option. the next time it happens you can find out the ip from which the connection is made.
another crazy thought... do u have vncserver running on your client machine? -siva ________________________________ From: Ritu Sinha [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, September 26, 2006 11:20 AM To: Kumar, Siva; vnc-list@realvnc.com Subject: RE: weird behavior I know for sure that no one is physically typing those commands on the remote machine.

In Windows the display shown by VNC is the same display shown on the monitor. So if a monitor is connected to the box, all your actions can be seen and the kbd/mouse attached to the box can be used for input. -siva -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Ritu Sinha Sent: Tuesday, September 26, 2006 10:03 AM To: vnc-list@realvnc.com Subject: weird behavior I have VNC server 4.1.2 installed on a remote machine running XP. I have used it for a few months and it has worked great. But recently, whenever I connect to this machine using the VNC Client, after sometime, it seems like someone else sneaks in and starts running the command prompt. I have to kill the VNC server to stop any damages. One time, I stayed on long enough to see that an "ftp" command was getting typed on the command prompt. I have set up the server with password authentication. Has anyone else seen this behavior? Any help or pointers will be greatly appreciated. --Ritu --------------------------------- Talk is cheap.
