Greetings,
I have a Mac Powerbook, on which I run VNCThing to connect
to a Win2K server that is running RealVNC. I have no
problems connecting to the server. After I have
connected, following a random amount of time, I am unable
to run applications from the "Start" menu or double-
clicking on their respective icons. Usually I receive the
error "Unable to run this command." Other times, nothing
happens. Perhaps on a related note, the launch bar icons
(e.g. "Show Desktop") don't do anything. Double-clicking
on a file to open it doesn't do anything, either.
However, if I click on "Start" and then use "Run..." it
works O.K.
I am logged in as "Administrator" on the Win2K server.
If this is a security feature, is there a way to override
it, or would that be ill-advised?
Thanx in advance.

P.S. Also applies when trying to open an icon in Control
Panel. I got something along the lines of "You don't have
permission" but I neglected to write it down.
