I use VNC 3.3.6 for remote administration on about 80 PCs running WinXP,
Win2K, Win98 and Win95 running in a mixed Win2000/Netware WAN. All
workstations are configured to run VNC as a service so they
automatically load VNC. It works very reliably for me on our local
segment but I do experience some problems when remotely controlling PCs
across our VPN.
I frequently find that I can connect to PCs on the opposite side of our
VPN but cannot get keyboard or mouse control. This is particularly true
after a remote system is rebooted and is at a login prompt. The fix is
to call someone at the remote site and have them reboot the system on
their end and I often need to reboot my PC to clear the problem. The
problem goes away until the next reboot of the remote system. I never
experience this problem on the local segment.
The PCs on the remote end are Win95 and Win98 machines running Netware
client v3.32 SP1 (the latest). They are configured identically to PCs on
the local segment that do not have the problem. The VPN is between (2)
eSoft Instagate EX units that run a Linux OS. Everything else seems to
work fine across the VPN.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
