Hello James I read the online documents and I still don't get something: I assume that since the viewer is working on the XP side then the issue is on the remote side (Linux machine in my case).
I do have a vncserver on my linux Fedora machine - and I can see it from the viewer side. So what do you mean by "VNC module"? Should I download a module from realvnc? Isn't the vncserver and that module the same thing?
