Hello Everyone,

I am having a curious problem with VNC.  Just to give some background, I
originally had VNC 3.3.3 (I think) installed on this computer and on others
on my LAN.  I then migrated everything over to TightVNC 1.2.5 and have since
upgraded to TightVNC 1.2.8.  But I finally decided to go back to 'plain' VNC
yesterday.  So, I made the switch over on the other 3 PCs on my LAN with no
issues.  2 of the PCs listen on the default port and 1 other listens on
'91'.  1 PC is Win98, 1 is Win2K Pro, and 1 is 2K Adv Server.

The problem is with my laptop.  I can install VNC without problems and can
listen on the default port with no problems.  The problem is when I try to
switch the port to anything but 'auto'.  At that point the GUI for the
properties just totally locks up.  I have also tried altering the port via
the registry and when I do that, the service will start, but the service
helper does not respond, nor does the VNC server.  Additionally, the service
will not shut down if I do that.  To be on the safe side,  I made sure all
traces of VNC and TightVNC were removed from the registry and the 'Program
Files' folder as well.  But after a reinstall and a reboot, I still can't
change the port.

Any ideas ?

Thanks,
Brian
