This may sound silly, but is there any chance that her password window
goes out of focus (merely behind another window)?  Sometimes I run into
focus issues, and merely going back to the task bar and clicking on the
VNC Authentication window (or whatever it's called) brings it back to
the front, and then login can proceed.  One way I've seen it happen is
if I double-click on the Viewer shortcut within an explorer window kind
of slowly, and I end up getting a double-click, followed by another
click on the Viewer icon after the Viewer had already presented the
password window (without my having realized it).  Then the password
window gets hidden merely because the explorer window that contained the
Viewer shortcut gets focus.

Subject: Can't connect no password dialog

I'm using Real VNC to manage my servers remotely and give a user access
to maintain a Web site. On that server, randomly my user can't connect.
She starts VNC viewer and the window to select the server appears, she
selects the server and the selection window disappears but the password
window never appears. I have to go over and locally access the server. I

log the user account out and back in, the icon in the system tray turns
from black to white and back on the system where the user tried to log
in the password window (from the previous connection attempt, sometimes
twice if she tried twice) appears and the user can then connect.

Anyone seen this before? Any fixes?
