Alan, Absence of AuthHosts will not cause problems. To reiterate my first mail on this - Your connection has rejected is what you'll get if you've had too many Authentication Failure messages previously. Are you *sure* that your client computer's keyboard layout hasn't changed, and that you're definitely typing in the password you think you're typing in? Does it appear correctly if you type it into Notepad on that PC? Cheers, Wez @ RealVNC Ltd.

Help! I'll throw one more wrench into the works...I had saved a shortcut onto the desktop for connecting to two servers I frequently use, and I haven't changed them, but I get the same symptoms when I try to connect using them (with the passwords saved) as when I type in the password, so I don't think that the passwords are the issue. As for as registry entry on the server, there are about 100 machines that I connect to. Is it possible that they would all change at the same time? One of the servers that I am trying to connect to is on the same desk as my workstation (about 18" away), and I am not getting (nor have I ever set up) a problem with the user accepting or rejecting the connection (the user would be me :-)). I'll check the registry entries on the server on my desk, just in case though... First time through, didn't find the string "AuthHosts"... Second time through, didn't find the string "AuthH"... it appears it doesn't have this registry entry. Could this be contributing to the problem? _______________________________________________ VNC-List mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] To remove yourself from the list visit: http://www.realvnc.com/mailman/listinfo/vnc-list
