Some Apple Remote Desktop client features
I have a problem connecting to the ARD - VNC server in Tiger Server using Chicken of the VNC or any other Mac VNC client. I *don't* have problems using Chicken of the VNC to connect to the ARD - VNC server in Tiger client. That makes no sense, but nevertheless, I get an error "incompatible version". (I have since stopped using ARD on on Tiger Client since it shares both displays, which is just too slow. Interesting difference, though.)
Some ARD client features - VNC interoperability
Thanks for the original post by 'victory' and the thread on using VNC with Mac OS 10.4 "Tiger." Using Chicken of the VNC on the Mac (along with ARD server on another "Tiger" Mac) and TightVNC (server and client) on a Windows XP PC, I've been able to remotely view and control another Mac from a Mac, remotely view and control a PC from a Mac, and remotely view and control a Mac from a PC. Cool, as I'm not eager to upgrade my Timbuktu 6.0.3 with such limited use.

Sorry I seem to have missed a trick here.
Avoiding "Incompatible Version"
You must enter a password in the "VNC Viewers may control screen with password" box, otherwise general VNC clients like TightVNC will display an "Incompatible Version" message. |
