(In reply to comment #1) > Please send the version of vnc and the log file (~/.vnc). Its the version with fedora core 3 and has not been updated so whatever came out with fedora core 3 thats what it is. As for the log file here it is: " Xvnc version 4.0 - built Oct 6 2004 08:11:33 Underlying X server release 60801000, The X.Org Foundation Sun Feb 5 22:06:49 2006 vncext: VNC extension running! vncext: Listening for VNC connections on port 5901 vncext: Listening for HTTP connections on port 5801 vncext: created VNC server for screen 0 error opening security policy file /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xserver/SecurityPolicy Could not init font path element /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/TTF/, removing from list!

Please try the newest version of vnc (fc4 or fc5test2), whether the problem is still present.
