That sounds very odd indeed. Next thing to check would be the event log; try to see if there are any odd events showing up.
The strange thing is that you should get a rejection very quickly over a local LAN. What I am concerned about is that you may have significant other issues with your network if you were getting a connection rejected. Could you post the actual message you get back? I am asking because it sounds more like the attempt to connect is timing out than that it is connecting and being rejected. If you can, also do a ping against the server. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Rothweiler, Claus" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, 2002-03-26 07:38 Subject: AW: VNC on NT4-Server with Mac client > Hi Alex, > sorry for the late answer, the mailserver was down for 3 days ...! > the rejection results after a waiting period of several minutes (3-4). > In the task bar the icon shows the server running.
