Re: VNC

Hi Holly,

  This really sounds like a name mismatch on your DNS server.  If the
computers are DHCP configured and self register their DNS, it could be a
DNS cache issue.  Bozteck VNCScan performs a continuous background scan for
computers to attempt to combat these issues but if you are using VNC
outside of the VNCScan console, you may need to do an ipconfig /flushdns to
get things back into sync.

Thank you,

Steve Bostedor
