MS Logon II - How does it work?

How does MS Logon II actually work???
I have tried it several times but I always get the error VNC authentication failed.
I have set up the accounts on my computer, example being COMPUTER/User and have tried logging in with both the VNC password AND the user's password but neither of them work and produce the error given. Can someone please tell me how I am supposed to do this?

Thanks

LordHogFred,

MS Logon II is for cross domain.. MS LOGIN I is for the same domain.

It is kinda tricky and has some random features around it.. What kind of Domain are you are dealing with windows 2000 windows 2003??? I stick with Classic VNC authenication with my personal windows 2003 domain. I have tested the MSLOGIN I and II on my ultra VNC version 1.0.1 and it does work.
Provided the username and passwords have access to the pcs and their are no group polices or domain polices in place to prevent logons to the workstation...

For Example: you can not have a user that does not have server logon rights in your mslogon II or II setup and expect it to work..

It these options are new in the Ultra VNC versions. So bear in mind that it
may give you a random feature or two but will work if you stick with it..

If you use MS-Logon I or II you need the user's password, not the VNC password.
With MS-Logon I you have to use the username without the domain prefix.
With MS-Logon II you can use the domain prefix, but you have to use a backslash, not a slash, to separate it from the username.
