Problems with java viewer

[Michael Rosen]

I'm not sure I understand the second paragraph of your first message
about the ports.  But I put everything back to 5900/5800 anyway.

Are you referring to the Windows hosts file?  I thought that affected
outgoing connections.  I am using a custom hosts file from
http://www.richardthelionhearted.com/Hosts/index.htm.  Could there be
something in the hosts file blocking the java connection?

Thanks,
Mike
