Sans, I've had good luck with a Palm IIIc hooked up to a Samsung 3500. I
am sorry to say that Harakan Software (Chris Smith?) seems not reply to

It only works for me sometimes, at other times it just drops the connection.

The first sentence of the PalmVNC readme.txt says,
It is strongly recommended that you install
both the PalmVNC client and the WinVNC-3.3.3r7
with Scaling Extensions. If an alternative VNC
server is used, the scaling features of PalmVNC
will not be available.
AFAIK, there are only two ways you could be running a server with scaling
extensions compatible with PalmVNC 1.40:
First, you installed the WinVNC binary bundled with PalmVNC
1.40--WinVNC-SSS v3.3.3r7 with Server Side Scaling extensions v1.7.0.
Or, second, you downloaded the sources from Harakan Software and compiled
them for Windows.
I don't know how one takes advantage of PalmVNC" scaling when viewing
a .*n.?x machine.

Either you would know that you had (perhaps compiled and) installed them,
or, for Windows, when you choose from the WinVNC-SSS tray icon "About
WinVNC", it would say WinVNC-SSS (WinVNC version 3.3.3r7 -- Server Side
Scaling Extensions v1.7.0).

I believe the source (with scaling extensions) has to be compiled for X.
>Is this a VNC configuration option?
No.
