The Java Viewer is downloaded via port 5800 by default, but connects back to
the VNC Server on port 5900. If you running VNC Free Edition then you'll
need to open the other port in your firewall. If you're running VNC
Enterprise Edition, you can just set both the Java Viewer and the VNC
Honestly, I don't know. I haven't used Windows XP enough to know how to
enable/disable that. It's part of Windows XP, by the way, not VNC, which is
why you couldn't find it in the VNC configs. :-)

The router looks like this - port 5900 to boxA ip address.
Box A VNC server is accepting connections on port 5900.
Box B is same with 5901, box C with 5902
I am using the gotomyvnc.com website to check the displays for connection.
Port 5901 (display 1) works no matter which computer it is
I have an item for the wish list:
It would be very helpful if the Prompt local user to accept connections
option were specific to each allowed connection.
That way, I could require local user prompts when a generic connection +
is attempted, while not requiring local user prompts when I connect
Try this -- reconfigure the router and the machines so that port 5900 goes
to machine a's port 5900. Port 5901 goes to machine B's port 5900, etc. See
if that works better.

ok I have found something interesting. When I check services for VNC
server it is set for automatic start on reboot, but it isn't running. So I
manually start it, and get a message that another instance of VNC server is
running, but it goes on to say the service is started. I go back and
I disabled spy-bot immunization, but that had no effect on VNC server
stopping. I found that I had a VNC icon in the sys-tray. When I stopped this
application, I was able to get the server service to start and stay running.
However, I still get the same error message when trying to connect. So
Some routers don't allow port number to change and only forward the
specified port to the target IP
In this case, VNC must be configured to listen on a different port as well.
for example:
VNC on BoxA would listen on 5900
VNC on BoxB would listen on 5901 etc
The router would forward 5900 too BoxA,
Jerry,
This functionality is already present in VNC Enterprise Edition and will
feature in VNC Free Edition 4.1.

Do you have any sort of antivirus software running that might mistake VNC

Brian,
The Java Viewer isn't failing, you're pointing your browser at the wrong
port.
By default, the Java Viewer is served on port 5800, and the VNC connection
then happens over port 5900.

Or alternatively, send any suggestions to both the list and to Steve, so

Dora,
For VNC Enterprise Edition, you need one licence per desktop that is to be
served. On Windows, that normally means one licence per server. You can
then have as many viewers connected to each desktop as you want.

I'm pointing my browser to the same port I point the Viewer at. I pointed the
Viewer at port 8080, which is the port the server is listening on. (Necessary
because the viewer is behind a firewall which blocks many ports, but 8080 is
open.) So I also pointed the brower at port 8080.
Thomas,
Are you saying that you have set both the Java Viewer port and the VNC port
to 8080? VNC Server Free Edition will server VNC on the specified port in
this case, and will ignore the Java Viewer setting, because it can't do both
on the same port (VNC Enterprise Edition can).
Cheers,
Wez
Yes, both ports on the server are set to 8080. The other piece of information
I have omitted is that for my Viewer app, which works properly with just this
one port specified, I am using SmartVNC Manager from s-code.com

I don't think you mean SmartVNC - SmartVNC is a VNC Viewer for the Microsoft

Well, I uninstalled the VNC version I had installed (the most recent), then
installed an older version I had on my computer. That fixed the problem.
Seems there is either a setting I don't know about on the new version, or
there is a bug.

Nope, what you are looking for, normal windows desktops cant do in the first
place.
If you are running a windows 2000+AD domain, you already have the tools to control
applications/settings/etc on workstations anyway.. Trying to do it like that just
makes things harder then it needs to be.
Problem:
VNC 4 running in service-mode on Windows 2003 Standard Server.
Initially, VNC 4 client/Web client connects to that server successfully
and can manipulate the GUI. Then, I've used a tool called Remote
Desktops version 5.2.3790.0 and initiated a terminal connection to the
2003 server.
Jeff,
This may sound obvious, but did you actually configure VNC 4 when you
installed it? VNC 4 is a complete rewrite of VNC, and doesn't use the old
VNC 3 settings, so an unconfigured installation is not normally accessible.
