This problem sounds like it must be something really simple but I
can't figure out what it is. 
Problem:
- Two computers cannot show each others' screens. 
Background:
- Each can view the screens of any others on the network. This holds
true whether the firewalls on each machine are disabled or not.
- Each can authenticate and then login but the result is a black/blank
screen
- Communication information shows zero bits/sec.
- All computers are running VNC 4.1.2 server/client
- Three computers are running the same version of Windows XP, one is
running Fedora Linux (FC4) - the Linux box is not one of the two
problem computers, two of the XP boxes are. 
- If I run a virtual machine on the two problem machines, they work
fine. Also, they can both see each others' drives under Windows, so
it's not a networking problem. Repeat: it's not a firewall issue as
disabling firewalls has no effect
- All computers are set up the same - eg to accept input only from the
local subnet

I am stumped by this. Weirdly, all worked fine for months, now this.
Has some XP update broken something?

Thanks in advance

Manek
