UltraVNC

You already got the answer: Contact Teamviewer-Support. I once sent an email and they answered within 1 day. It was a very fast answer and they have a very simple and fast product. If I had a big company I would definately choose to buy this product. :) PS: No, I'm not linked to that company in any ...

According to the website it's completely new code.

I just found this. It only seems to lack a DSM plugin-security but you can use a password:

Wow, this is awsome! If you have ever spend some hours setting up and testing 'SingleClick' you really enjoy this very simple but secure way of connecting two computers! The setup is a breeze because one doesn't need to setup anything. :) The only little drawback is that you depend on the TeamViewer ...

Nice, thanks.

Also the password?

Thanks, I didn't know that. Anyway, a blinking icon would be very nice.

It's blinking?
As far as I know it just changes it's color from blue to green once.

I would appreciate it if the UVNC-icon would really blink while the viewer is connected. This way people know the computer is being used and watched via remote. Is it possible to add this feature in the future?

Why mainting backward compatibility?
And if needed, why not make a checkbox one can uncheck to use more than 8 characters?
There could be a small warning saying:
WARNING: If checkbox is unchecked passwords with up to 64 signs are used but backward compatibility with VNC is broken.

Me too

This sounds good to me as I am no expert.
What do the developers of UltraVNC say about this? Is this faster than UltraVNC with tight compression? Does it work with UltraVNC at all?

If a longer password was implemented UltraVNC could remove MSlogon feature since a longer password is secure enough. This could result in a more secure and less complex (no MSLogon) program. scorp: If someone can run a program that reads the password from the registry and sends it home he might as ...

No, I'm fine without it.

BTW:

I just learned that some other VNC-programs, e.g. RealVNC, support passwords with up to 255 signs.
It would be great if this security feature would be implemented into UltraVNC. If this is only possible with vnc 4.x based software, will you release UltraVNC based on v4?

I just tried to use AES v1.00 and it won't work for me, too. I was using ARC before which worked fine. I generated an AESv2.key, put the aesv2.key as well as the AESV2Plugin.dsm file in both program directories (server + viewer) and switched to AES encryption on both machines. I restarted the server ...

Maybe.
Is there a chance it will be implemented in some new release?

My father owns a little company with 3 computers and 2 employees. He often travels to Asia where he owns a liitle flat and is regularily working at his home computers via UltraVNC. Concerning private reasons of his employees I would like the servers at his home computers to play a repeating sound ...

Thanks!

Is connecting via KEY more secure?

What is more secure when used with a generated 128bit key? MSRC4Plugin119RC8 oder the latest ARC4?

Thanks a lot!

Thank you for the fast reply. I generated a new AES key and opened it with a notepad. The key is very short compared with the MSRC4 key I used before. Is this OK?

Also, is it true that the AES key is different everytime I start a new connection or will it always be the same?

I'd like to have the most secure connection possible between the server and viewer.
I remember that WLAN is using AES encryption because t is more secure than older encryptions.
Is the AES plugin also the most secure encryption currently available for UltraVNC?

Hi there,
do I need the encryption for safety reasons for all transfers or is it just needed for chat purposes?

In other words: Is UltraVNC safe to use when only the password is used?
