Which VNC implementation are you using? I've been switching over to Andrey's VNC implemenation as time permits. It does a lot of things better than the circa 2004 PMVNC. I'm using PMVNC 103. Now I'll try Andrey's. Well, actually, I thought I was using PMVNC, but that's based on the name of a zip file. Now that I've looked at the directory holding the executables, I see that the README is signed by Andrey. I have one program in D:\Apps\VNC and one in D:\Programs\VNC. (Normally I don't put anything in D:\Programs, to avoid this sort of confusion.) The Startup folder is definitely choosing Andrey's. I can't find anything about version either in the README or elsewhere with a version number. The executables have a file date of 2019-03-31, but that is probably when I installed it. I'm a keyboard guy, so for some things the legacy pmvnc offers better keyboard access. However, I need to do some more information gathering before I am ready to discuss this with Andrey. Something I appreciate about the one I have is that it's very easy to copy text from a command-line window on the server and then paste it into an editor window on my desktop computer. I do that moderately often. I've also found that if I need to edit a file on the server then doing it via Netdrive is a bad idea; I need to edit it inside VNC. Lately the VNC server seems to crashing overnight (or perhaps just failing to respond). The only solution I've found is to reboot the server. I need a bit more information before I can offer any possibly useful suggestions. First, which VNC? Second are you getting popuplog type crashes or stuck in the exit list type crashes or something else? The only recent popuplog entries are for INIServe. (Something I need to fix, of course, but other things have higher priority.) There don't seem to be trap files or anything like. As for other causes, I can only check that with a monitor put on the server ... which I can do, but the failure always seems to happen when I'm asleep. Since the problem seems to be recent, you might try to think of what might have changed at about the same time the problems started. The only recent changes have been versions of Weasel that crash with some sort of heap problem. However, the version currently running seems to have fixed the problem (fingers crossed!). -- Peter Moylan http://www.pmoylan.org
