Hi, I had the same problem: when trying to change the password (clicking on
the icon which is in the toolbar) by selecting it with the mouse and
overwriting it with the new one I realized, when connecting again, it was
still remembering the old one.
So I found a way to cheat it: if you delete the password in the text box and
close the dialog with a blank password, then VNC complains it's a bad
practice to use a blank password, blah blah and pretends you to insert a non
blank password then it will work. Didn't try with another user but
Administrator (I hope to remember and try it on mondays when I come back at
work)
