Hm...that's interesting. Apparently either my old Martial Arts school has
decided that the web page wasn't worth keeping around (quite possible since
I'm not there to update it any more and didn't keep it very current even when
I was) or something is wrong at the ISP's end (which also happened
occasionally).

Nope.

Well, I've included the old patch file that I used to use below, and you can
get the original source from the main VNC site. Hopefully that should be
sufficient to get you going (or a shove in the right direction, at least).
In the meantime, someone at AT&T might want to put this patch on the main web
site, along with a note about the site being down...and this weekend I'll see
about setting up another web page for it (been meaning to set up a personal
web site through my cable modem provider anyways). I don't know if I still
have the tar file with the binaries laying around though, or the html page
that I had posted there for that matter. I *might* have it archvied on a
CDROM at home, but I'm not sure...
Another choice is downloading the precompiled AIX version from Tridia:
http://www.tridiavnc.com/

Sorry, can't help there. But a number of people have done this on other
platforms, just do a search on the mailing list archives for more info.

Hope this helps.
