The password verification fails in both cases - either thru the web browser or VNC viewer. However, will take a look on the access list feature to see whether it can solve the problem.

If it is Java try using a native client. VNC is a very simple protocol to proxy and support, is it a normal TCP session on a single port (the java client's web server uses a second port though). No odd reverse connections or UDP traffic that can cause problem. Do you have a access list set up in VNC, I haven't used them but that might do it. I assume you are getting a prompt, which means you have connected. >I ain't sure whether because the VPN in my case is IPSEC based which makes >the difference. Nope, shouldn't. -- -------------- David A.
