Which vnc client you are using?
vnc-4.1.2-14.el5_3.1 tigervnc-1.0.1-3.fc12.i686
How do you send Ctrl-Alt-Del? Using the F8 menu? In case windows doesn't accept the password: Does it help to press the left Ctrl key once? Does it help to press the left Alt key once?
Is possibly a duplicate of bug #643317
Can you test whenever kvm-83-218.el5 fixes the bug please?
1. reproduce in kvm-83-213.el5 keyboard work after pressing the left Ctrl key once. keyboard doesn't work after pressing the left Alt key once. Ctrl+Alt+Delete is sent by F8 menu in bug #643317, Ctrl+Alt+Delete is sent by kerboard in this bug. they are not duplicate. 2. Can not reproduce in kvm-83-218.el5
