Hi,

I'm using 3.3.3r2+tight1.2.2.  I've got a vncserver running
on solaris 8 for a while, and connect to it regularly from a
PC running of WinME using cygwin's ssh together with local
loopback to the ssh port.  Works fine normally, but I
recently encountered an error message after typing in my VNC
password, something like "Unknown authentication scheme".
The vncserver log file has 987 ctrl-@ symbols at the point
where I try to connect, followed by

   29/06/02 14:52:49 Got connection from client 127.0.0.1
   29/06/02 14:52:50 Protocol version 3.5
   29/06/02 14:52:50 Ignoring minor version mismatch

   29/06/02 14:52:55 Using tight encoding for client 127.0.0.1
   29/06/02 14:52:55 rfbProcessClientNormalMessage: ignoring unknown encoding 8
   29/06/02 14:52:55 Enabling X-style cursor updates for client 127.0.0.1
   29/06/02 14:52:55 Using image quality level 0 for client 127.0.0.1
   29/06/02 14:52:55 Enabling LastRect protocol extension for client 127.0.0.1

Even though the vncserver seems to continue beyond the
authentication point, the vncviewer doesn't (it just
terminates).

Would anyone have any clues about this, or even just similar
experience?  I haven't ruled out the fact that our solaris
network is glitchy as it undergoing some kind of upgrade
(partially completed on Friday, to be completed Tuesday).
Other details include that I run into this problem with the
several vncservers that were running since before Friday,
and that the problem goes away if I clobber all the servers
and start a new one.
