Sign on problem

[Travis Anderegg - MSN]

Hi Aurthor,

I am using 3.3.7 on my laptop and 3.3.9 R9 on the webserver. The services
was one of the first things that I thought of. It shows up as VNC server |
started | Automatic in the services management counsel. So it should start
when the computer reboots itself, but I am still not able to sign in.

Any other ideas?

Travis

Travis,

Make sure you are running VNC as a service.  You don't mention what version
you're using, but the more recent ones do this very easily.

Regards,

Arthur

Greetings,

I have a problem logging onto a Windows 2000 webserver that has VNC
installed. When I am out in the field I will often use VNC and my laptop to
log onto the webserver to troubleshoot things. For some reason a problem has
come up where I can not connect to the webserver using VNC IF the webserver
had not already logged onto. So for example if there is a long power outage
and the webserver reboots inself and it comes to the Windows 2000 log on
screen, I can not use VNC, it will not connect. If someone locally signs
onto the Windows 2000 webserver and the webserver returns to the Log on
screen, then VNC works ok.

I want it to always work on the sign on screen after a reboot. It's a pain
to put in service call to have someone go to faciliti to sign on each time
after a reboot.

It worked ok until I installed a Linksys wirless hub. In the installation I
blocked all ports except those used by the website and the VNC program for
security purposes.

Any know what the problem might be?

Thanks,

Travis
