RE: listen connection problem

Maybe a proxy timeout issue.  Can he try another proxy server?

Subject: listen connection problem


I provide some ad hoc support to a few friends and family using tight
VNC.  It works well except on one machine.

Normally, I like to fire up my vncviewer in listen mode and let the
server connect to me.  This works well in all cases except for my son's
computer in his new college dormitory.  In this case, I can see his VNC
server attempting to make a connection to my VNC viewer console but it
connects SO slowwwwly that it's just not worth it.  No errors appear at
either end.  It will take perhaps 3 or more minutes before my console
will even *begin* to attempt displaying his screen.  Totally
unacceptable.  What *does* work is if I initiate the connection normally
using my VNC viewer (not listen mode).  Then all works well.  But I'd
prefer not connecting in this manner.

What should I do to try and get VNC listen mode working between us? 
Thanks!
