How do I fix my VNC setup?

Question

I am using Real VNC Viewer on Mac OSX 10.6 and Tight VNC Server on Windows XP.

This setup was working. I have not changed any settings to cause it not to work. But now I am not receiving screen updates to the VNC viewer. If I am controlling my Server from my Viewer in the same room. I can see that I am moving the mouse and sending mouse-clicks. But I am not receiving screen updates to the Viewer.

I have a VNC viewer on my iPhone. If I use it to connect to my Server, it works fine. So I figure the problem is with my VNC Viewer. I have tried uninstalling it and reinstalling it but to no avail. I do not know if there are any preferences that are being saved even with the uninstall?

Any ideas or points in the right direction.

Answer 1

Why not test with the VNC viewer that is build into the Mac OS X?

Try --> Connect to Server --> vnc://IP ADDRESS

Now, I don't use it to connect to VNC, but to other Macintoshes, but I suspect that it will work with normal VNC servers...
