Hello James,
I have been reading over the long discussion that went on a few months ago
about how Win 2000 Advanced Server seems to behave differently than the
version of Win2000 that you had tested with.
We are using the WIN-VNC 3.3.3r7 on a variety of NT4 boxes without any
problems (running as a service), however... Our one lonely Windows 2000
Server (not Advanced), the service refuses to work at the logon screen...
the service answers... but...
When I try to connect I get a password failed message.
However, if I physically log the machine in past the logon screen, the
password suddendly works, and everything works. Now if I during my VNC
session, log-out and then log-in as a different user, still everything works
fine.
But if I log-out and am therefore sitting at the "Press CRTL-ALT-DEL" to
logon screen... And kill the VNC connection... well... then I need to walk
back to the server and physically log it in again, before VNC will
authenticate my password...
It seems to me that something is preventing the password from being properly
authenticated. As I mentioned I do get a request for entering the VNC
password...
Any ideas? Work arounds, etc?
