Mac OS Preferences Bug?

[Jonathan Morton]

>I actually did read the docs. If you look at the html doc
>AboutVNCServer.html, the Quick Start section says:
>
>	"Double Click VNC Server Installer
>       Restart Machine
>       Open VNC Controls control panel (or select Options from
>       the server's File menu)
>       Set password for display 0
>       Press Okay, then double click VNCServer"
>
>Note the order: Open the Control Panel BEFORE starting the server.
>
>However, what I had to do to make it work was (after installing
>and restarting):
>1. Run the server.
>2. Quit the server. The preferences file gets written at this point.
>3. Open the Control Panel and modify the settings.
>4. Run the server (again).
>
>It works now. Thanks for the help.


Trust Charles to put dodgy documentation in with his dodgy code...
