That's interesting. I experienced that once also, but I figured out that .vnc was registered to my UltraVNC vncviewer.exe and not the RealVNC version 4 viewer.exe. Try right-clicking the .vnc file that you created and choose top "Open With". Browse for the vncviewer.exe that exists with the version 4 of the server and tell it to open with that.
I believe that the difference is that the vnc4 viewer doesn't put in the port=5900 in the config file and the vnc3 based viewers expect that. Instead, the RealVNC 4 viewer just puts host:port as the host. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Com MN PG P E B Consultant 3 Sent: Monday, November 14, 2005 9:35 AM To: vnc-list@realvnc.com Subject: Loading configuration file (was: Session without typing password?)
