VNC viewer problem

[Philippe Guittard]

   No,  I  just  click on 'Ok' when the Server specification box appears.
   The server name looks like
   my.server.name:0  (without the <> of course)
   I  have  also  noticed that it takes a longer time to appear than with
   IE6.

Philippe,

Are you changing the contents of the Server specification box in the viewer,
when it appears?

I have tried to connect this morning to my personal computer
with IE6 (with Microsoft Java machine) with no problem. Then
I have open a connection with Firefox and get the following
error (java console output) before the server can ask me for
my password:

java.net.ConnectException: Connection timed out: connect

        Philippe,

        When you say "I always get a timeout error", is that at
the point of
        downloading the Java viewer, or at the point of trying
to connect back to
        the server?

                   Hi all VNC Fans !
                   I  have the following problem with the JAVA
viewer. In
                order to access
                   my  personal  computer  from  my  office I
have to use the
                JAVA applet
                   because  I'm  behind a proxy server. If I
use IE 6 with
                Microsoft Java
                   machine  no problems at all. Since several
weeks I have
                started to use
                   Mozilla  Firefox  browser, but with it I
cannot connect to
                my computer
                   (I always get a timeout error). Moreover if
I use the Sun
                java machine
                   (JRE  1.4.2.05)  with  IE6 I get the same
problem. Does
                anyone have an
                   idea to solve this problem.
                   Thanks.
