likely to be stupid, but ...

[Christophe Le Cannellier]

Folks,

I used VNC long ago, and in my memory it ran like a charm. Today, to face an
emergencey, I installed a server onto a Linux box (installed okay, starts
okay), and I tried to get a client working from a XP system. I am indeed
prompted for the password I configured, and a display shows up, but theres
nothing inside, but the regular grey background, plus the large X prompt,
which moves all right with the mouse. No application windows, no nothing.
Thinking of a problem with XP, I decided to run the client on the machine
where the servers runs (Linux) : same stuff 
I might be an RTFM issue, but I tried to read and couldnt guess a hint, and
Im desperate because I need it badly now, so I wont spend my night on
site  any help *please* ???
Also do CC reply to sprl "at" wanadoo.fr <mailto:sprl "at" wanadoo.fr>

Thanks a 10**6 in advance

Christophe
