THANKs, that's it. I downloaded the previous version
vnc-3.3.2r6_x86_win32.zip
=========================
and everything runs smoothly. There is only one tiny drop of
bitterness: the new features are not accessible with the old version.
The /config parameter is very useful as is the possibility to save
the parameters of a connection.
In a next upgrade it would be very nice if the neccessary
symbolic link "vncviewer -config <some-config-file>.vnc"
could be automatically created by vncviewer, not only the saving of
the parameters. But that's not really essential - stability has
the highets priority.
Thank you very much again,
Andreas.
