I just recently installed a new server.
It's a dual-Xeon 2.4GHz box, with Hyperthreading enabled. This causes the
system to act as if it had 4 physical CPUs (although there are only 2).

Then you definitely have network connectivity. If you weren't talking to

If you're building something into VNC, why would you use SSH, instead of
SSL/TLS? SSH has all this extra stuff, where ssl just does
encryption/authentication.

I'm not sure what you mean by "VNC configuration". If you are referring to
the various polling options, then I can say that a 2CPU (4 virtual
processors) 2GHz Xeon box has worse performance than a Celeron 566 with
identical settings, over the same network.
Since this seems odd to me (that a far f
I suggest that you use winpcap and windump/ethereal to sniff the traffic on
both the machine you are trying to connect to and the machine you are trying
to connect from.
It should show you clearly what is going on with the connection.
