Thanks James,
That sounds like just the sort of thing I need, but I have been unable to
find out how to actually enable Server Debug.
It doesn't appear to be in the options dialogue, it doesn't appear to be a
command line option (winvnc4 - help doesn't mention it). I've seen one or
two hints that it might be a registry entry (possibly only on versions
prior to 4) but trawling through there doesn't yield anything promising
that I can edit. The mailing list (back to 2001) appears to be devoid of
discussion.
Can you provide me with any further clues?
If it makes any difference, the servers are running Win98SE in service
mode.
