Re: Password is not set

Seems like it did not reach to the server.  Any way to trace where does it go? or to know whether it reaches router?

Thanks.

Server is windows server 2008.  Client is windows XP professional.  Is any way (log) to tell it did point to the right server machine?

Thanks.

  I have a machine behind the router and I set up port forwarding according to instruction.

  However, when I tried to connect to server, the client TightVNC viewer kept popping up dialog box "This server does not have a valid password enabled. Until a password is set incoming connections cannot be accepted".

  But I did change password several times on server machine.

  Did I forget any steps?  Please help.

  Thanks.
