thank  you! one check mark on the other machine was enough to get VNC 
working correctly . . . or at least the way I needed it to work.  I am 
running Ubuntu on both machines and the control you mentioned is under 
System/Preferences/Remote Desktop and then uncheck in the security section 
"ask you for conformation"  Again, thank you for your help.
