Sorry James, it does happen. especialy in the followings:
if there is high CPU load on the server,
if the server side is very low memory,
if the connection speed is 56k and below.
if there are more than about 20 hoops

Then the VNC service is not running.
Nothing is servicing that port, so you have to find out why.
Must be some setting in VNC.
However, I am only familiar with WinNT and W2000 machines, it's been a long
time since I dealt with the home class PC:s (W95-98-ME) so I guess my ideas
are no use here. :-
Bo, both machines are running Win ME.

to 192.168.0.1" or something along those lines.

Be sure that your vnc server is runing with more than 16bpp as screen depth.
KDE2 need at least this number of color
Run Xvnc or the vncserver script with this argument "-depth 16"

Is there a way to stop users from disabling or closing VNC on their local

It would help a bit if you state what kind of computers you are dealing with:
Linux (which distro)
Solaris (which version)
Win95
Win98
WinME
WinNT4
W2000
etc
A lot to choose from.

Hi, Dave.
I think that the cisco client changes the
default route on the win98 to point to the corporate

that moment.
An easy workaround can be used on the win98 machine.
