Real VNC issue

Can't figure this one out:

I have a website running on a server at another location (seperate LAN/firewall), I VPN into that and then use VNC to work remotely ... but when I access the website via VNC (the machine account I use is member of admins) I can't get to certain parts of the website, I get an access denied error. (anon access and windows authentication is turned on)

BUT if I acccess the website w/o VNC (just using my local browser after VPN) everything works fine. A friend who was at the server tried VNCing and everything worked fine... this is the first time i've ever had a problem like this using VNC.

anybody have any ideas???
thanks for the help!

Just a wild guess, but have you tried a different VNC client? (UltraVNC is my personal favorite).

I'm using UltraVNC right now, but I've noticed how intensive it is on CPUs. I have a FileServer in my other room (a Dell 400sc, 2.6GHz, 768MB RAM)....all this computer does is download/upload/store files. It's not really doing anything most of the time. So I just VNC in when I need to. But then I look at the Task Manager and VNC is taking up like 45-50% of the CPU. What's up with that?

Have you tried the video hook driver with UltraVNC? I don't know about the CPU usage (the driver claims to lower CPU%), but I noticed a huge performance increase after installing the video driver.
