My big test - 11 people seeing my desktop at the same time

It worked with everyone using a Java browser but a few questions arise

One participant could not get connected, error message:
rdl.IOExeception:java.net.socketexception: socket read failed
Is there a cure?

In a second test I asked viewers to enter a user name.  They failed to
connect.
How is the user name used?

Some users were down to 256 colours.  How is that controlled?

For those interested in the system being used
I have:
BT 2gb broadband
ADSL Modem
Smoothwall firewall feeding a small network
Win XP on a HP TC1100 GHz CPU 1gb RAM


Thanks in anticipation
