Sorry, my brain's mush... I'm just a whole lot of tired! The problem is that the Num Lock keypad doesn't work.
I reported this issue to Netraverse back in January and they apparently still don't have it fixed. It's definately something with their software but I saw some references to creating X keyboard maps that would work here:
This doesn't work, though. Win4Lin Terminal Server (what I'm using, runs Win98 SE) complains that the Xvnc.code differs from the X server configuration and won't start.
Any thoughts?

It's not clear from this post what problem you'r! e having. I do
know, however, that with Win4LinPro (not Win4Lin), there is a bug
with UK keyboards when emulating W2K where the numlock action is
reversed. US keyboards work OK.
I know this because I reported it. It's annoyingly still there
after several official and test releases. You'll just have to wait
for Win4Lin, Inc. to come up with a fix (if that really is your
problem).
