ping IP address

If no ping reply is received, the Sender is
unreachable or is not running.

If a ping reply is received, the Sender software
may not be running on the remote computer.

2. A Sender is not running on the system you are

attempting to reach. Verify that the Sender is
running on the system.

3. The Sender system is not started or connected to

the network. You could try a basic connectivity
test, such as ping.

4. The network is not configured correctly. For

example, DNS may not have resolved the name
of the Sender system correctly or your /etc/hosts
file, if using UNIX, does not have the proper
ipaddress mapped to the hostname. Try entering
the ipaddress of the Sender.

5. The Sender is started and listening on a different

network interface than the one you are
attempting to reach. This could be the case if the
Sender system has multiple NICs, it is a multi-
homed system, or there is a virtual ethernet
device installed. If this is true you may need to
specify the binding order of hostnames to
ipaddress.

6. If you are attempting to connect to a UNIX

system you may have entered an incorrect
screen number.

7. If the Sender system has changed networks and

been assigned a new ipaddress after the Sender
was started then you'll need to re-start the
Sender service/daemon.

Authentication
failed!

The Remote Graphics Software Sender has refused to
allow a connection. Possible reasons include the
following:

1. The authentication credentials that you

entered, such as domain name, user name
and password, are not valid or recognized by
the Sender system.

2. The Sender's authentication is not configured

appropriately. Please consult the User's
manual and README.txt for the latest
directions and issues with respect to
configuring authentication.
