Connection Status Messages

Connection Status Messages

Virtual Inspector displays connection feedback messages at the top of the Server window. These messages indicate whether the Client was found, authenticated, or rejected.

Understanding these messages helps diagnose connection, password, and network issues.

This means:

• The Server successfully contacted the Client
