Jeff,
I've been running VNC on Solaris 9 (9/04 with no patches) for a while now with no problem. However my Solaris 8 (2/04, but with the latest recommended patches) is showing this problem. Can you give us some more detail as to how you found the problem (so I can verify it's the same one), and the fix (feel free to mail me off list, if it's long!)
BTW is it Sun or VNC's xdm implementation that's not behaving?
Thanks,
Alasdair
The version of xdm that ships with Solaris 8 and 9 is incompatible with VNC 4. This incompatibility is the reason the VNC window disappears after connecting and logging in. I was able to get VNC 4.1.1 to work by downloading the XFree 4.3.0 source, building it and using the xdm that comes with it.
