vnc vs freeNX?

[James Weatherall]

Felix,

Const is the guy who originally started the TightVNC project.  If he says
what you're running isn't TightVNC, he's probably right!

In any case, whatever it is that you are running is *not* a VNC server,
since it reports a non-existent RFB protocol version.

Cheers,

Wez @ RealVNC Ltd.
