Question : Problem: VNC from PC to Mac?

I have UltraVNC on Windows XP and am trying to connect to Macs running OS X v10.4.x and OS  X v10.5.x.  I have Screen Sharing turned on and a VNC password assigned on the Macs I'm working with, however when I try to connect to the Tiger Mac I get an error "Incompatible version."  When I connect to the Leopard Mac, the message is "WriteExact: Socket error while writing."

What am I missing?

What happens if you disable the Screen Sharing, and instead enable Remote Management?

Go to System Preferences->Sharing->Remote Management->Computer Settings and enable VNC there and set a password for it?

Also, try using TightVNC http://downloads.sourceforge.net/vnc-tight/tightvnc-1.3.9-setup.exe

Cheers,

Joel
