The same thing happened to me (NT4 and Win2K systems).  I had to
uninstall/reinstall to get the password to change.  Or I changed the
password through the VNC GUI, then went into RegEdt32, copied the content
and pasted it into the remote machine Registries.

But have you rebooted?  I can make it change, but after it
reboots, it seems to revert.  So far, I have to do this:

   1) Un-install VNC

   2) reboot

   3) Re-install VNC with new password

Seems a bit drastic, so I MUST be doing something wrong.

Anyone out there know my error?

Cheers,

Mike Leo
