ToddAndMargo,

May I suggest that you ask those questions in the #metasploit IRC channel on the Freenode network (chat.freenode.net)? There are plenty of active users in there who may be able to respond quicker than the securityfocus mail list.

Cheers,

Ben Ten

Hi Ivan,

   I think I understand.  If the vnc server rejects the
exploit, you never get the "msf" prompt back because
it never proceeded far enough with the exploit.

   So, this is good news?  Be nice if you got some
feedback as to trying and not working.
