Hi,
we use VNC for remote administration on several 
linux boxes from NT laptops. So far so good.

Our only problem is, that when starting netvaults
gui, we see dotted squares instead of menu texts.
The texts of some other elements were shown.
When using the same gui from the console we 
see the normal menus etc.

So it seems to me that it is a problem of fonts of VNC.
I tried a little with fontpaths but I was unsuccessful.

I saw in the archives a hint to use a font server.
I contacted the admin who got this response and he
wrote me that it did not help.

Any ideas ? Thanks in advance.

Olaf
