Hi,
I've recently upgraded to Fedora and VNC viewer 4.0b4. When I connect
using that and others connect using VNC viewer 3.3.3r2, they can see my
mouse movements but I cannot see theirs. In other words, they move the
mouse all around their screen but on my screen, the mouse stays stationary.

Heya. Your workplace network is likely protected by a firewall,
maybe even in combination with a web-proxy. That makes getting a VNC
connection "thru" it a bit tricky. Some thoughts about it here:

If you have a router, try port forwarding port # 5900
through 5903 and set the IP address to the computer

Does it work if you manually do the command in the rc.vnc file?

Yes,
Download the vnc beta 4 (goto downloads at www.realvnc.com and on the
right hand side is a link to beta 4) and use the X0vncserver file to
start a server that will allow you to connect to display 0 and see what
is shown on the console gui.

Disable Local Cursor rendering in your viewer - this will force the server

Mike,
Check that there isn't already a user logged in. Windows XP supports Fast
User Switching, which current VNC releases aren't compatible with - if you
log in more that one user at once then the VNC server will only be able to
see the first user's desktop, and only when it is visible locally,
