hink it has to be a piticular problem with Borland Delphi.
If the VNC programmers could figure this problem out and fix it, many
many people would switch to VNC because this is a problem for all Delphi
apps I bet, but this is NOT their fault.

This is a KDE problem. KDE does not operate correctly with multiple
instances running as the same person. I am not sure if this has been
fixed or not, but I had the same problem around the RH 7.0 timeframe.
How about running the VNC session as someone other than root. Multiple
instances of KDE

machine. However, when I am remote with either VNC or PcAnywhere, the
program tends to crash a LOT.
This is on Windows, so this may be completely unrelated, but I thought I
would share that with you. Maybe there is a known problem with borland
programs and remote software.
How about eveyone who takes their OS choice personally form another
mailing list?
Why can't people take gratuitous slaps at Windows,Linux, Mac, Beos or
any other OS on the planet. Especially if it is true? The fact that
Windows puts the GUI in the kernel DOES suck. It makes certain

I don't think either of these is a good idea for several reasons:
1) How is a screen saver password any different that no screen saver with
a VNC password? VNC passwords are just as easy to set/change as a screen

I all the machines are on 10mbit or higher connections, then it really
does not matter. However if some of the machines are on WAN connections
then TightVNC would be the way to go.
Either way, I would work out how to upgrade VNC after deployment. This
is the hardest problem I have had with ma
I have noticed that VNC and Win2K(and I assume WinXP) does not detect
popup menus. For example, holding your mouse completely still, right
click on the desktop. Nothing will happen until you move your mouse at
least one pixel in any direction and then VNC seems to notice the popup

this might actually make things worse.

Try telneting to the VNC port on that box and make sure it is accepting
connections. If it is the telnet session will be accepted and you will
get the phrase "RFB.."
If you do not get this then either VNC is not running or some security
feature of your box is preventing connection.

Very good work on tracing this problem down. ATI cards have notioursly
bad NT4 drivers.
Does this only happen with TightVNC? Have you tried the AT&T version?
Eveytime I have a customer that is having problems with their servers
blue screening, it is usually the video card at fault. All cards a
I think there is a lot of confussion about TightVNC. I will try to
explain to all. However, http://www.tightvnc.com explains how tightvnc
works better than I can.
Tight is an encoding for VNC. TightVNC is a "distribution" of VNC with
the tight encoding included. TightVNC is VNC with some extr
Currently, Tridia VS Tight Preview Release, Tight is much better.
It is not really any faster over fast connections, but it seems faster
because the cursor never lags.
Over slow connections, tight feels about 4x faster than the current
TridiaVNC. This is mainly due to the JPEG compresion of
What issues with the local cursors are you reffering to? I have noticed
an unusual amount of server processor usage when the cursor changes.
Even on the server, the cursor takes about 0.5 seconds to change shape.
I don't know if it is because of the processor being bogged down or
something tight
I agree with all the tridia vs vnc(regular) comments. However, if you
really want to see a speed improvment, go to http://www.tightvnc.com and
download the latest beta tight builds for the server and client. The
new beta builds, which will hopefully get put into the next version of
Tridia VNC, f
You must reboot the machine after making this change. For some reason, the
login screen uses the resolution and color depth the machine was booted
into. So if you change the res or depth and logout, you will notice that
the login screen is still in whatever res/depth you booted with. Weird.

This is only true on Windows VNC servers. A VNC server on a Unix box has no
overhead other than the memory and CPU requirements of the programs run via
a VNC session.
If VNC server could hook Windows DRI calls, PcAnywhere, TS, and Citrix would
go out of business.

This pretty much sums up ICA's advantage over RDP(Microsofts Protocol) and
RFB(VNC). ICA is fast at any speed. VNC and RDP are goo

VNC and Tight are amazing programs.
