All,
Lets summerize the problem and see if we can get a breakdown of
which ones don't work.
Desktop = 192.168.1.2 (java on port 5802) vnc server port 5900?
xp - media center sp2
laptop = 192.168.1.3 (java on port 5803) vnc server port 5900? xp home sp2
(both have ie6 and latest java runtime)
for purposes of this table
--> means "connects to"
vncviewer.exe is the windows executable
java means you typed in the ip address of the other computer and port number
desktop (vncviewer.exe) -----> laptop (vnc server - service mode) not ok?
desktop (vncviewer.exe) -----> laptop (vnc server - user mode) OK
desktop (java) -----> laptop (vnc server - service mode)
not ok?
desktop (java) -----> laptop (vnc server - user mode) OK
laptop (vncviewer.exe) -----> desktop (vnc server - service mode) OK
laptop (vncviewer.exe) -----> desktop (vnc server - user mode) OK
laptop (java) -----> desktop (vnc server - service mode) OK
laptop (java) -----> desktop (vnc server - user mode) OK
is this correct?
Additionally, is the vnc server running as "localUser" under the services tool?
"we'll lick this one yet!"

OK - I opened IE6 on the Laptop; typed in http://192168.1.2:5802. The
VNC Connections Details box openned and I typed in 192.168.1.3 next to
the VNC Server box
I got a Java Applet Window with the message:
Java Security.AccessControlException:Access Denied (java.net.Socket
Permission 192.168.1.3:5900 connect, resolve)
I've tried all the combinations of PC viewer/browser to Laptop
User/Service modes and visa versa. The only two that DONT work are PC
running viewer OR browser with the laptop running service mode !!
So near and yet so far but I can't see (or find) any obvious Java
Access Setting in XP Pro or XP Home stopping access (I've looked in
Security Settings in Internet Options within the Control Panel) ???
Regards

Close ,
on the laptop open 192.168.1.2:5802 (or localhost:5802) then when
the box opens up, called vnc viewer connection details type this
address next to "vnc server" 192.168.1.3
what this will do is use the javaviewer (on the laptop) to connect to
the vnc server (on the workstation) this should work ok.
Angelo.
PS. if you can use the normal vncviewer i would use this instead of
the java one anyways....

Angelo - just to make sure I'm getting the work around correct.
Am I connecting from my laptop to my PC using the browser
(http://192.168.1.2:5802 ) and when this connects (which it does) then
- from the PC - connect to the laptop via the browser using
http://192.168.1.3:5803.
Tried this with service mode running on both machines.
If so I still get the "page cannot be displayed message".
I still feel its an O/S or IE6 problem but where and on which machine
I can't say.

First a work around.....
you are thinking about using the javaviewer to connect from outside
(at some point) from a machine where you might not be able to install
the viewer? this isn't an issue that often as you dont even really
need to "install" it. I keep a copy of the windows client on my usb
keychain and i can almost always run it from there. but i digress....
as long as one of the java clients works you can connect to
192.168.1.2:5802 wait for the client to load and then type in the box
192.168.1.3.
the java client basically is like a copy of the vncviewer that runs
inside your browser window.
in fact you could load the java client from *anyone's* vnc server and
then use the client to control your machine.
Other stuffisis:
Just to clarify something, when you conect to http://192.168.1.3:5803.
what do you see?
do you see an applet symbol? Does the java client load in the
browser but then not work.
i dont remember if this was in an earlier post or not. but this may
help to pinpoint the issue.
Gut reaction (which is prolly wrong, BTW) is that xp home may be
somehow not allowing web traffic to be served. for some reasons I
remember that there are IIS issues with home possiblly simmilar to
this..
