I am trying connect to a VNC server.  It is an XP home machine.  I have
disabled the welcome screen, fast user switching, xp firewall and the
remote assistance service.  There are no ip exclusions in the registry.
When I run a scan at gotomyvnc.com it says the server is accepting
connections on the default port 5900.

However, when I try to connect with the viewer nothing happens -- no
"unable to connect" box, no password box, nothing.  Task Manager shows the
process as running indefinitely until I kill it.  I can telnet into the
server on port 5900 or 5800 but nothing shows in the telnet window but the
cursor.  I can then escape out ot the telnet session, do an 'st' and it
says that it is connected to the server.  However, I never get the typical
'rfb' text that you get from a "good" server.  I also have echo on for
telnet and have unset ntlm.  So, it seems like it connects but nothing
happens beyond that.

Any ideas/suggestions/troubleshooting help would be greatly appreciated.
