This is really a strange one... Reverse connection from XP server to 98 viewer both running 3.3.5 with default settings over fast internet connection.
Everything connects and works beautifully - at first. As soon as any app is launched and 'clicked into', its window becomes visually disabled (title bar goes grey) and it does not respond to anything else, either from the remote or local side. It cannot even be closed. Other windows can be opened, but the same thing happens to them. The only way to get rid of them is to kill their processes. The remote viewer can still move the mouse around and select other apps to run. Again, the app will start fine and it starts with a blue title bar, but as soon as I try to click it or type into it, it goes grey. I have tried many server/viewer settings variations, but none seem to fix this behaviour. I have, in the process of narrowing this down, tested these other OS/vnc version combos: 98 3.3.5 viewer to XP 3.3.5 server - problem above 98 3.3.5 viewer to XP 3.3.4 server - problem above 98 3.3.3 viewer to XP 3.3.5 server - problem above 98 3.3.3 viewer to XP 3.3.4 server - problem above 98 Tight125 viewer to XP 3.3.5 server - problem above 98 Tight125 viewer to XP 3.3.4 server - problem above 98 3.3.5 viewer to XP 3.3.3 server - works NT 3.3.5 viewer to XP 3.3.5 server - works XP 3.3.5 viewer to XP 3.3.5 server - works XP 3.3.5 viewer to 98 3.3.5 server - works So it looks like its the combination of any 98 viewer and an XP server running either 3.3.4 or 3.3.5 that causes the issue. The XP machines involved have Service Pack 1 and Win98s are various, some 4.10 some SE. Has anybody seen this before, or have any ideas? RealVNC folks, can you try duplicating this?
