VNC

We’re using VNC to remote into a computer. The service needs to be started. The VNC viewer works fine. But the computer is rebooted every morning and occasionally during the day. When it gets rebooted, the VNC service doesn’t restart, and we can’t access the computer.

The computer is Windows 98, connected to an expensive production machine so can’t be upgraded. No issues so far with the computer being 98 and remoting in. And no issue with the fact that it’s connected to the production machine. Just the issue with the service not starting.

The IP address is static and there is no problem getting network access, even after boot.

Any suggestions?
