Dear all,

 

 

 

 

(vnc 3.3.7 issue) 

 

 

 

I'm using vnc to remotely administer a humanitas site.

 

I'm working over a connection via a two network servers:

 

 

 

    -----------------------------------<VNC

connection>-----------------------------------

 

    |

|

 

<client> --- <local (home) linux server> --- . --- <remote linux server>

--- <desktop to be administered>

 

 Win2K SP2       Slackware 8.0, 2.4.20             Slackware 8.0, 2.4.18

Win2K SP2

 

 VNC Client

VNC Server Service

 

 

 

Somehow, this doesn't work for all desktops in the remote network.

 

Especially one desktop doesn't work. I'm getting very fast a black

initial screen without a real cursor (only the dot). 

 

 

 

However, when I do the same thing using following strategy:

 

 

 

    --local VNC connection>-  ---------------------<remote VNC

connection>--------------------

 

    |                      |  |

|

 

<client> --- <local (home) linux server> --- . --- <remote linux server>

--- <desktop to be administered>

 

 Win2K SP2       Slackware 8.0, 2.4.20             Slackware 8.0, 2.4.18

Win2K SP2

 

 VNC Client <----->   VNC Server

 

                      VNC Client

<------------------------------------------------>   VNC Server

 

 

 

It works! 

 

 

 

All other connections work. I can ping the remote Win2K machine from my

local Win2K machine.

 

Other remote Win2K machines work fine.

 

 

 

Is there any explanation for this behaviour?

 

 

 

Best regards,

 

Hans Oesterholt-Dijkema
