Hi Wez,

I was trying to help somebody out, but was unable to connect using VNC (I received "The connection closed unexpectedly" errors in my viewer after providing the password). No errors were being logged to the Event viewer on the server side. In attempting to troubleshoot the situation, I discovered he was accessing the box via RDP, and was launching the VNC server in User mode from within the active RDP session. Although I am well aware of the issues of incompatibility between RDP and VNC ( I hit them all the time), I was positive that User mode had worked for me in the past. I tried it on one of my LAN servers (win2k server) and it worked (it was running VNC 4.0). So, I had him downgrade to 4.0, and it worked! Likewise, I upgraded my LAN server to 4.1.1 and now it fails. I also tried this on Win2003 server and Win XP Pro and they all work with 4.0 and fail with 4.1.1. Any ideas?

If there is any more information I can provide, please let me know.
Thanks.
