Hi,

After a lot of googling & forumreading i got an acceptable VNC connection from a windows XP to my new mac mini (OSX 10.5). I use Vine server on the mini and tightVNC as a viewer. All works fine at an acceptable speed, except for one thing: I cannot use the windows key (which I mapped to the option key in osx). This is really annoying because a lot of short cut keys use the option key. When I press the windows key, it brings up my windows taskbar.....

I read that you can disable the windows key with a registry hack, and that works, but then the windows key does not do anything. Any clues how I can get it to act as an option key?

Thanks !
