Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks!
hi,
i tried this yesterday on my osx 10.4.3 g5 and it worked fine. make sure you've got remote access enabled on the 'sharing' system preference, and that you click advanced and enable vnc access.

(Edit: i used the built-in vnc server, entered the ip address onto the vnc client on the 770, and it only asked me for a password - no username required.)

good luck..
