I'm running Solaris 9, and VNC Free Edition 4.1.1, without any problems. I
connect fine from Windows to Solaris as well as from Solaris to Windows. I
even tried to connect from Windows to Solaris, and then connect back from
Solaris to my Windows machine - although the effect was something strange
(you know, like a camera looking at the monitor that shows image from that
camera ;-)), but it worked.
Packages have been installed as root, and I run them both as root and as a
regular user. The server even works as "nobody" in inetd mode. Maybe if you
have a bit older system, like Solaris 8, you should give an older version of
VNC a try - maybe the newest version is just incompatible with older
Solaris. Some years ago I installed VNC 3.3.2r3 on Solaris 2.5.1 and it
works fine until now...
