Hi there, I've got a W2K machine with no keyboard, mouse or screen physically plugged in. I purchased it like this hoping I could use VNC to access it.
Things are mostly fine however I occassionally lose the ability to open files and launch control panels via VNC. When I try opening a file, nothing happens i.e. double-clicking, selecting then returning, right-click & open. Additionally when I try opening a control panel I get 'access denied'... (interestingly I can go to the command line and issue a 'control' command successfully)... I'm wondering if these things are somehow related to WinVNC. I tried searching the archives but the search engine wasn't behaving (not showing results). My apologies if this type of question has been asked before. I should also tell you that I'm accessing the PC using VNCThing on Mac OS X (I also tried the traditional Mac Classic version with the same results) and that WinVNC is running as a service. Thanks so much for any light that you can shed on this.
