Errors While Connecting to Remote Desktop

[Ross Peoples]

Binary package hint: vino

I'm running the Remote Desktop in Hardy on two different machines and whenever I connect to them for the first two or three times, it works great, but after that, I start getting the error, "Unknown VNC authentication result!". Turning off Remote Desktop, then running the command "killall vino", then re-enabling the Remote Desktop fixes the problem, but obviously, I can't do that from a remote location, which completely defeats the purpose of Remote Desktop.

I am using the latest Hardy and the client is an XP machine using the UltraVNC client. I guess I should also mention that one of my machines has port 5900 forwarded through the router, so I can directly connect to it. In order to connect to the other machine, I log into via SSH and use the port forwarding feature of SSH to connect to Remote Desktop.

So summarize, the machine I directly connect to gives the error "Unknown authentication scheme!", while the one connecting through SSH gives the error "Unknown VNC authentication result!".

Thank you for your bug report. The issue is an upstream one and it would be nice if somebody having it could send the bug the to the people writting the software (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Upstream/GNOME)
