 minutes, if a user forgets to log off.  I am using the following registry
 key:
 HKEY_CURRENT_USER\software\ORL\WinVNC3\IdleTimeout.   If I set the time to
 30 seconds or less, it works.  If I set it to anything above that, the
 machine does not time out.

    Can someone please tell me what we are doing wrong?

The semantics of IdleTimeout are currently to disconnect only if there are
input events or update requests from the viewer.

Sorry to be dense, Andy, but I don't get it. Viewer is logged into server, and you want to "disconnect [viewer from server(?)] only if there are input events or update requests from the viewer"? And what does that have to do with an IdleTimout limit of 30 seconds?
