Hi Raf,
I really don't have a clue what I'm doing wrong. So far I haven't been able to set it up to work on my iPad (connecting to my Windows Vista PC)
Please have a look at the attached screen shots.
Thanks for your help!

Hi Dorien,
Thanks for posting the screenshots, it should make debugging this problem easier.
-First of all, how did you populate the session editor? Did you pick from the "Pick Your Computer" using NetBIOS?
-Seems like this is a name resolution issue, so I'm assuming you do have UltraVNC installed on your Windows machine already; and you've tested accessing it via VNC from another computer in your network.
-Because this looks like address resolution, could you replace the VNC Hostname entry from "PC_VAN_DORIEN" to the actual IP address of your system? You can get the IP address by hovering the mouse over the UltraVNC "eye" icon in the notification area of your taskbar (or by looking it up in the "Pick your Computer" screen in Remoter).
Remoter 2.4 prompts you now, when you select a computer from NetBIOS, if you want to use the netbios hostname or the IP address.
Raf.
