Bug Description

I tried tu use Vinagre (0.4.90-0ubuntu1) to establish connection from my laptop (HardHeron Alpha 4) to another computer (WinXP) runing UltraVNC server 1.0.2.

Vinagre ask me the password to access the server the reply "Connection to host XXXXX was closed" I just can see the winXP screen blink two times before the error message appears into vinagre.

I tried to use Vinagre with another VNC server (tight VNC) and it works well!

Hi. I ask you to install libgtk-vnc-1.0-0_0.3.3-0ubuntu1_i386.deb that you can find at http://www.gnome.org/~jwendell/gtk-vnc/

After that, please, run Vinagre in a terminal. You'll see a lot of messages in terminal. Copy and paste here those messages.

Also, what is the authentication type in your ultravnc server? Do you have file-transfer enabled?
