That's not a bug, it's a feature and properly stated in the design documents: Only the first 8 characters of the passwords are significant. If the password is Sambasivan, then Sambasiv will be accepted too. Or are you saying that if the password is 'cbee' that 'cbeerse' is also accepted? That is a bug since that violates the 8 characters significant statement. On the other hand, don't rely on the vnc security, it is not designed to be secure, it is designed to be usefull.
