Hi,
During the afternoon, when the internet is busy,
I switch to tight encoding. Not sure if it's just
the bandwidth problem or an encoding problem,
but sometimes the screen just doesn't get
updated with my mouse/keyboard actions
indefinitely until I type in a few more keys
or click a few times.
These are the encodings used by VNC to send screen update data to the
client.

The Raw encoding sends every individual pixel. It uses the most
bandwidth of any encoding but is also very simple to implement.

I think the possible problem with zonealarm though is the screen updates. In

You're actually woefully *overpowered*. There are no native issues that

I have found that zonealarm is the culprit.
Try shutting down zonealarm, starting the viewer then restart zonealarm.
Zonealarm will then work with everything else and you will find that (for
some reason) VNC doesn't go through it.
Hope this helps.

It actually sets two keys in the registry under your software classes;
the command line is probably what you are having problems with. In the
registry the location is:

Those are good questions to ask at the beginning of the process Sara -
most people wait until after deployment to do so.
The methodology you use for setting up your remote control system is

You should be able to register the VNCViewer as the application to use
for opening .vnc files by runing it with the switch "-register".
Make sure you have VNCViewer in it's "permanent" location of course;
Windows will save the path in the registry for use when opening the VNC
files. At that poin

Just a thought: are you telling the routers to map ports 5900, 5901, etc to
internal addresses on CORRESPONDING ports (ie, incoming port 5901 gets
mapped to 10.1.1.2 port 5901) or are you telling the routers to redirect
ports to the default 5900 (ie, incoming port 5901 gets mapped to 10.1.1.2

First thing to check is this:
Do you REALLY have connectivity to the required port on each PC?
Obviously, you tried to set it up that way, but one problem that seems
to be pretty common is issues with weird routers that don't do what you
expect - so possibly you are rpevented from contacting thos
