#1464 "0" of the end of password
Hello, when I have password to connection with VNC without 0 of the end I can type "password" to correctly connection and I can type "password0" too to correctly connection but that password is not set up anywhere.
When I have password: "pass0" that problem is not exists. When I'm typing "pass0" I can connect correctly, when I'm typing "pass" or "pass00" connection is not correctly.
Only when I have password without "0" of the end of password I can type "password" with "0" of the end to correctly connection when "password0" is not set up anywhere.
Thank you for understand me with my bad english.

Hello Piotr,
Unfortunately, that's just a limitation of the standard RFB/VNC protocol which limits the length of the password by 8 characters. Everything after the 8 characters is not actually used in the password. Thus, "password", "password0", "passwordX" etc. all will work equally on the protocol level. If we enable longer passwords, we would break compatibility with VNC. Sorry for the inconvenience.
