Hi William, Scott and other VNC enthusiasts Your suggested changes worked for me. I am now able to connect remotely to my home networked VNC servers with both the native vnc viewer and the java applet.
Now, where in the VNC documentation should I have found the specific information you provided me to solve my problem. Is it there in full view, and I missed it? I will soon post questions regarding other problems. Thanks again. gc ----- Original Message ----- From: "Scott C.
