Alan, "Your connection has been rejected" could mean one of three things: - You have failed to enter the correct password so many times that the server thinks you are trying to crack a password and so will only allow a single connection attempt from that host every minute or so. - The AuthHosts registry entry at the server explicitly specifies that that particular client machine should not be allowed to connect. - The AuthHosts registry entry at the server specifies that connections from that particular client machine must be accepted by a local user, but the local user is rejecting them, or the query is timing out. The fact that you get Authentication Failure every so often suggests that the password is the issue. If one particular machine is failing authentication and others aren't then you should check the states of Caps Lock, Num Lock, etc and that the keyboard layout is set correctly on that machine. Cheers, Wez @ RealVNC Ltd.

Help! Alan, What is the actual error message you get, using the latest VNC Viewer (4b4) as the client on the problem machine? Do you have any firewalling software installed on that machine?
