End of stream

Joe,

The most obvious cause of an EndOfStream is that the Hosts string is set to
only allow connections from 192.168.1.0 - connections from any other host
will be accepted but immediately dropped.

Are you sure that's the address of the host you're connecting from?

Cheers,

Wez @ RealVNC Ltd.
