Authentication Failure

[Michael J Schumacher]

I will have our Europe try this on Monday and see what that reveals.

Thanks.

Are you sure that they typed in the password correctly.  Have them change it
to something simple like "a" and try that.

Hello,

I recently installed VNC Server 4.0 on our Windows NT 4.0 and Windows 2000
Server.  I set the password and I was able to connect using the viewer.  I
tested the connection from home using  a VPN connection through our firewall
and it worked as well.

Today, I had our Europe office install the VNC server on their Windows NT
4.0 server and set the password.  We have a VPN between locations.  I
started the viewer on my Windows XP Pro SP1 workstation, entered the server
ip and I was prompted for the password.

I entered the password and received 'authentication failure' from the VNC
viewer.

In the archives, someone said to try telneting to the server with port 5900.
I did that and I received the header information RFB 003.003.  I had the
Europe office use all the defaults during the installation of the VNC server
just as I did here in the U.S.

Does any one have any ideas for me?

Thanks.
