Just a shot in the dark here, but I have had some odd behavior with
VNC since upgrading from RH to FC2. And, this is not limited to FC3
but includes FC2 as well as Windows 98/2000 machines in both server
and client modes. One thing that I have noticed is that I have
actually been able to remote machines sometimes using the Fedora
Remote Desktop Connection application that vncviewer refused to talk
to. I am not sure if it is something with the vnc app, or just a
PIBKAC error (highly likely). I just know that the RDC application
almost always solves the problem.
