I've had similar problems. When I "Send Ctrl-Alt-Del" then "Lock Computer", I'm no longer able to enter anything thru the keyboard, either in the Username or Password fields. I can however move the mouse between the two fields, even double-click to select my username. I'm just not able to type anything. The problem persists even when I disconnect VNC and go straight to the server console. The problem clears when I do another "Send Ctrl-Alt-Del" thru VNC, or Ctrl-Alt-Del at the console. This behavior is consistent on every Win2K server that I've installed VNC 4 on. I've tried password copy/paste like you did, but couldn't get it to paste. I've also not experienced the weirdness that you did with the mouse buttons.
