Are you having this issue on both PCs? Have you had VNC installed before? Did you do then install while logged in as a user with Administrator rights? Try deleting the registry keys used by VNC. Shut down VNC completely (if running as a service, make sure the service is stopped) and delete the following keys from the registry (and anything under them: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\ORL\WinVNC3\ HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\ORL\WinVNC3\Default HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\ORL\WinVNC3\<username> HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\ORL\WinVNC3 BTW - You won't get prompted for a password on install, just the first time VNC runs. If running as a service make sure you restart the service rather than just running VNC in app mode, that way the "Default" password will be set. -- William Hooper _______________________________________________ VNC-List mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.realvnc.com/mailman/listinfo/vnc-list
