BSOD - WinXP and Win2K SP2 when using scaling (TightVNC and normal client)

2001-11-21 Thread Andrew van der Stock
Hi there, I have an interesting BSOD. Running the latest stable TightVNC server (1.2.1) on two of my test boxes (Win2K Professional SP2, MagicGraph 256AV video card), I was able to reliably replicate a Win32K.sys BSOD on WinXP running on a Dell C600 (ATI Rage M3 chipset) and on a friend's Dell C6

Complete untested speculation on my part: If you are using VNC + encrypted tunnelling program (SSH or Zebedee come to mind) you may be able to also map tcp/udp ports 135 - 139 (ports used for RPC and netbios on Windows) on the remote machine (assuming the remote machine is running Windows). Thus
