This isn't a bug, it is a documented limitation. http://www.uk.research.att.com/archive/vnc/faq.html#q55 "While we're on the subject of security, you should also be aware that only the first 8 characters of VNC passwords are significant. This is because the 'getpass' call used in the Unix server to read a password has this restriction, and the other platforms have been made compatible with this." -- William Hooper _______________________________________________ VNC-List mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] To remove yourself from the list visit: http://www.realvnc.com/mailman/listinfo/vnc-list
