Mac – vnc disconnects after password is entered

macvncwindows-vista

I'm attempting to connect to a Vista machine running RealVNC from a Mac. I've tried using both the applet and Chicken of the VNC to connect. The following is the traffic between the two PCs:

balance -pf 5900 41.193.x.x
-< 12
RFB 003.008\0A

-> 12
RFB 003.008\0A

-< 2
\01\02
-> 1
\02
-< 16
\9CaZH^B,\B5M\11\1A\CD\87Ibm
-> 16
\C8\DE\CF\92\FA\CF\CBe\D0\B0\A1A\9D\8F\0C6
-< 4
\00\00\00\00
-> 1
\00
-< 0

The applet log displays the following:

CConn: connected to host 41.193.x.x port 5900
CConnection: Server supports RFB protocol version 3.8
CConnection: Using RFB protocol version 3.8
main: rdr.EndOfStream: EndOfStream

What are the things I can check. I'm reasonably certain I'm passing the correct password and obviously the ports are open.

Are you sure the Vista machine is running normally? For example, I've had this problem (enter password and RealVNC immediately disconnects) when the machine has crashed and is "waiting for programs to close"
