Connect to VNC from Windows I'm trying to connect to a mac screen sharing from a windows machine using tightvnc

I'm getting the error

"Server did not offer supported security type"

Any ideas on how to fix this ?
If you use Vine Server VNC as the server on the mac and open up port 5900, and VNC Viewer on the PC (or any other vnc viewer) you'll be fine.  Its not native, but its more flexible.

This, of course, is a free solution.

See this thread on mac screen sharing:
