OK, well, why didn't you mention that before?  Your original message 
implied that the lock-up either just occurred randomly or that it 
occurred as a result of running vncpasswd.  Now you're saying that it 
occurs as a result of doing something specific in OpenWorks, which makes 
a lot more sense.  In the process of working with Santos, we've 
uncovered a few issues like this in the past that were specific to oil & 
gas apps (those apps seem to be very good at finding bugs in X servers.)

I am looking into the mouse button issue, but since that just affects 
the viewer, you should still be able to use the 1.2 server.  If you need 
the 1.1 applet, then just do the following:

-- Install the 1.1 RPM
-- mv /opt/TurboVNC/vnc/classes /tmp
-- Upgrade to the 1.2 RPM
-- mv /opt/TurboVNC/java /opt/TurboVNC/java.bak
-- mv /tmp/classes /opt/TurboVNC/java

The 1.2 server should now serve up the 1.1 applet.

I looked at the change log, and I don't see anything obvious that has 
changed in the server since 1.1 that might affect this, unless you're 
running into the 32-bit limitation of the idle timer that was fixed in 
1.2 beta (but I doubt it-- the symptoms of that issue were different.) 
Regardless, though, a lot has changed in 1.2, so I really do recommend 
upgrading.  Minimally, it ensures that we're on the same page.
