Black screen using VNC on Leopard across VPN or to different network segment

Asked by mcballar65 in VNC Remote Access Software, Mac OS 10.5 (Leopard)

Tags: ,

I have an Apple at home that has Leopard on it.  I am using the built-in VPN software to connect to my office network.  I am attempting to use built-in VNC to access shares on my servers.  I can connect OK, but after the connection is done, the screen I have, which should be displaying the Windows server desktop is black.  I can take that same Mac to my office and I can VNC to the same servers there and it works perfectly.  If I am on my corporate network and attempt to VNC to a computer that is on a different segment I Have the same problem.  VNC works just fine in all of these scenarios from a Windows-based PC.  

BTW, I have an old slot loading iMac at home and I can VPN into my network and run Chicken of the VNC from it to my company servers and that works just fine.

Any thoughts?
