Brian, I would recommend an upgrade to VNC 4b4, which won't display a dialog requiring user interaction if it crashes and, more importantly, will probably not crash in the first place... Cheers, -- James Weatherall [EMAIL PROTECTED] RealVNC Ltd. On Sat, 2004-01-03 at 18:34, [EMAIL PROTECTED

Ryan, The most likely cause is a full Application Event Log, which will cause VNC Server 4 to exit when it discovers it can't log the current connection details. Can you verify that the Application Event Log is set to delete old entries as required? Cheers, Wez @ RealVNC Ltd. On Tue,

Greg, The uMapType change you suggest can't possibly work - uMapType=0 maps from virtual keycode to scancode, while uMapType=3 maps from scancode to virtual keycode. MapVirtualKey is used in the VNC 4 codebase purely to fake a scancode to associate with keyboard events, so that DOS prompts and

The current VNC releases are designed to operate over TCP/IP. If you can set up a TCP/IP connection between the two machines, via dial-up (perhaps using PPP, for example) then you should be able to use VNC over the resulting connection. Cheers, Wez @ RealVNC Ltd. -Original Message-
