I guess I didn't explain very clear. I'll try simplify :-)

On server machine (running Debian) I installed the VNCServer. This
machine has a ABNT12 keyboard layout

On my machine (also running Debian) I installed the VNCViewer and
connected to the 'server machine'. I have a 102key US common keyboard
layout.

When I get connect to the server machine with vncviewer I can't type
anything since any key I press is received there as a weird character or
even Shift/Ctrl/Alt sequences.
I couldn't find a way to correct it. I can't modify XF86Config
keyboard's layout in the server machine because no one will be able to
use the machine locally. I also couldn't find a way to enable a personal
configuration in the xserver session running on the server machine.

Today I also tries to connect to the server machine from a Win2k station
using vncviewer. The same problem occured. Any idea?

You mean aside from having your own keyboard map (or *A* viewer machine
keyboard map) also set to ABNT12??

Subject: Keyboard problem

Hi people,

    I installed VNCServer on a Debian machine that has a 'ABNT12'
keyboard layout (it's a portuguese layout). When I connect there from my

machine (I have an usual 102keys US keyboard) all graphics works fiine,
except that anything I type is translated wrong on the remote machine,
so I can't type anything... Since I can't modify the remote machine
keyboard layout (people would be very mad at me) I can't use vnc at all.

    Is there an 'easy' solution to go around this? Like a user's
personal keyboard configuration, or something like that?

Thanks in advance for any tips.

Gabriel
