Does anybody have a clue on what the external program is?

Thanks in advance.

Hi Danny,

If you don't require DNS support, then turning it off (under the General tab when editing your connection) should fix the problem for you.

Otherwise it sounds like you may have a permissions issue. Try removing and reinstalling the Viscosity application and see how it goes.

Cheers,
James
