Mike,

It seems there is no problem from Real VNC side but it might be related how
Window<->VNC clipboard exchange work. The limit I mentioned is for single
selection but there is no limit after which copy-pasting stops working
altogether. I feel there is something happening in internally such that
Windows is stopping sharing clipboard with running application like Real
VNC, Exceed or other VNC commercial. That's a reason after restarting the
Real VNC session, it starts working again.

I guess the things should happened like below:

VNC to Windows work because clipboard contents will be stored on Windows
memory that could be fetch by Windows clipboard fetching application. VNC to
VNC works because Real VNC Viewer will handle clipboard copy-pasting and
Windows will not come into picture but it will fail only Windows to VNC
because Windows will not share (I guess not sure) clipboard contents with
VNC session.

If some one especially Real VNC people can throw some guidance here then it
would really help to solve this issue.

I am not sure how "exec /usr/bin/autocutsel" helped you.

Thanks,
Paresh
