I have a dual monitor setup on my office desktop. It is set up such that it acts as if it is one wide screen vs. the setup another person has in my office which looks like it is 2 separate screens. I don't know if that makes a difference.

I use the RealVNC 4.1.2 server on my office machine. When I connect to my office desktop from home, where I only have one monitor, the single screen "tries" to show both screens by having whichever screen "slide" over, dragging the other screen with it. The screen I'm on depends entirely on which of my 2 office screens I would have the mouse pointer on.

I did nothing at all to the VNC configuration on either the viewer or server end to get this to work like that. It worked just like that earlier with VNC 3.3.6 and VNC 4.1.1.

Subject: Help viewing a dual monitor setup with VNC 4.1.2

Hi all,

By searching the list I've determined that VNC v.4 should support viewing
dual monitor setups, however I've been unable to determine how to accomplish
this. The system that I'm trying to view has the taskbar on the secondary
display, and that is the display that I see (not sure if the taksbar's
orientation plays a part in this). I haven't found a way to view the primary
display or a way to view both displays simultaneously.

I'm running VNC on a WinXP Pro platform.

If anyone can offer any assistance at all with this I will be forever
grateful.
Thanks,



John
