absolutely brilliant program. Still it has a few difficulties.
I'm trying to connect between a mac (clone running system 8.6) and an
HPUX workstation (10.20). The HP version 3.3.3? built just fine
according to the outstanding directions under contributed. There are
a variety of warnings along the way but these scrolled by quite fast
and did not kill the compile.
=======================
Running the server on the mac trying to connect from the HP
This seemed to work OK initially. The mouse jitters a bit but I guess
this is due to the mouse continually sending events which has been
noted. I was able to start word and powerpoint and view some items-
but on quitting powerpoint the connection froze (mouse in mac window
stopped moving). I killed the connection and tried to reconnect but
that didn't work. Much to my surprise the mac was not frozen so I
don't know what the problem was.
========================
Running the server on the HP, trying to connect from my mac.
The HP server seemed to start fine and gave me a screen number.
Unfortunately the mac could not connect to it. It kept giving the
following error.
OTConnect fails fffff3aa kOTLookErr - An event occurred - call Look().
(Searching the mailing lists by the way never seems to return
anything even if I search for vncviewer so I'm sorry if this question
has been answered before.)
thanks,
darren
