It works on my box at work (vncserver), but not at home. And, they're running similar vintage versions of FreeBSD/X, but the one at work has XIG 4.1, and the one at home has XIG 3.1. > Can you check that *all* of the font directories that it says it's > checking actually exist?

OK, if I do the appletviewer thing, I get the following error: moth:/usr/X11R6/share/vnc/classes % appletviewer http://localhost:5801 java.lang.IllegalAccessError: optionsFrame at vncviewer.init(vncviewer.java) at sun.applet.AppletPanel.run(AppletPanel.java:287) at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java) Nate To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-java" in the body of the message
