I have been working with the software for a couple of days and cannot seem to get it to work through a repeater. Right now I am using public repeater repeater01.ultravnc.info and the tests come back good. When I start the server it gives me:
Setting up encryption
Waiting for Viewer...
The viewer gives me this via the debug:
--The operation completed successfully.
Encryption, key exchange DH
--The operation completed successfully.
Wainting for server to become online.
--A connection attempt failed because the connect party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to repond.
Waiting for server to become online..
I have created the server a couple of times with different repeaters and verified the passwords, but still nothing.
Suggestions?

Re: Server and Viewer not connecting
If you set it up using [topic=9663]"Zero Configuration" PcHelpWare_viewer Setup[/topic], then perhaps the repeater needs to be restarted. If that's the case, send a PM to [user=3406]Bevtech[/user].
Re: Server and Viewer not connecting
I am an idiot. I was using the profile name as opposed to ID for the server user name login. Mystery solved.
