Hi Folks,

I have started to have a problem with VNC where I can make a connection to a
Windows 2003 server via VNC and see the standard Windows 2003 log in screen,
but I can't actually try to log in I get a standard Windows error "The
system could not log you on.  Make sure your User name and domain are
correct, then type your password again.  Letters in passwords must be typed
using the correct case."

If I actually go to the console and use the same password, it lets me log
in, and then I can go back to my VNC session (that has watched me actually
log in!) and carry on...

I have tried uninstalling VNC and re-installing it, but this didn't help.

Thanks,

Andrew McCall
