VNC issues

    Hi,

    i'm having problems with vnc on my linux box. I have it set to only allow connections through localhost and can connect to the server using SSH, but I can only connect to it using one laptop.

    If I try from another pc or laptop (with windows) I get the error, the connection closed unexpectedly and the log file shows

    ** (nm-applet:3538): WARNING **: <WARNING> nma_dbus_init (): nma_dbus_init() could not acquire its service. dbus_bus_acquire_service() says: 'Connection ":1.36" is not allowed to own the service "org.freedesktop.NetworkManagerInfo" due to security policies in the configuration file'

    I have the exact same settings on my laptop that works and doesn't even down to the same exe's but still no joy. Anyone know how to fix this?
