Could not create new session with this button. How can I fix it? Thanks.

The host machine must have v3.0 beta1 (or later) of the TurboVNC Server installed in order to use the TurboVNC Session Manager. There is no need to authenticate using a Unix user account, because the TurboVNC Session Manager already authenticates using SSH (which is tied to your Unix user account) and a one-time password that is tunneled through the SSH connection. However, if you need to use another form of authentication with the session manager, you can pass -nosessmgrauto on the TurboVNC Viewer command line, as described here. That will allow you to use any security type with the TurboVNC Session Manager.

Thank you for your prompt response. Is OTP necessary for creating new session?

Yes, unless -nosessmgrauto is used.
