I'm trying to setup VNC on my FC8 install. Whenever I try to connect to the

client... How can I figure out how to resolve this?

I suspect the fault lies in the setup of the Windows VNC Server that
you are trying to connect to. I had a similar problem about a year
ago with a half-dozen machines on a remote LAN, and I believe it was
as simple as setting one of the Options for the VNC server on the
windows machine. (Right click the system tray VNC server icon and
select Options.) I believe, silly though it sounds, that I had to
check Remove wallpaper and Remove background pattern on the Desktop
tab.

I just checked my old e-mails and confirmed that checking these boxes
on the remote computers made the disconnects quit.

Good Luck.

Gerry
