James, VNC server appears as started in the Services Control Panel. I am going to describe the precise sequence of steps that led to the connection refused message.
- Since the problem server is on a remote site, I have accessed to it through VNC Server 3.3.7 and installed VNC Server 4.0b on it (a copy of the installation program is on the server); - The installation was successful: at this point both versions of VNC server were running; - At this point, I have stopped VNC Server 3.3.7: the connection was closed; - I have tried to connect to the problem PC but I was prompted the connection refused message: a guy on the remote site confirmed that VNC Server 4 was running while VNC Server 3.3.7 was stopped. - VNC Server 4 was uninstalled and connection re-established by means of VNC 3.3.7 Regards Livio Curzola Software engineer Tel : +39 0481 523874 mail :[EMAIL PROTECTED] t&t telematica e trasporti srl visit our web: www.t-t.it Sede Autoporto pad.A c/o B.I.C.

Are you sure that VNC Server is running?
