Problem with SC not opening

Ohtime · Post by **Ohtime** » 2006-01-20 22:30

Hello All,

I am learning with your help, but slow or maybe I am just slow?

Your answers to my first set of questions made me take a step back and go slower. I am doing all of my testing on my home network. Then will move up to the internet.

I have the “server” running on PC Win98 se (192.168.0.2) and the “viewer” running on PC XP-pro sp2 (192.168.0.3) Works good.

I now want to test “SC” on the XP machine. I open up “Custom.zip”. I made minor changes (put my name in) Zipped it and up loaded it to http://sc.uvnc.com/cgi-bin/upload3.pl. I then save the exe file. When I run the exe file I just saved it does not open it just places the icon down by the time. I now try to make the Exe with out making any changes to the txt file. Same thing. I try to run it on other machines, same thing. I make the Txt then Exe file as it should be, same thing.

I did make one custom SE file that does open as it should when I was doing my testing over the internet. I cannot find the txt file I used to make that one. But the Exe opens fine

I do not see how I can be screwing this up as the Txt file is very simple. I can list it if you want to see it.

If it matters this is how I am starting the “viewer”.
“C:\programs files\ultravnc\vncviewer.exe” –listen

Thanks for the help…..Larry

Larry,

Please list your helpdesk.txt file you can use fake Ips to increase security if you wish so another user can see what you did wrong..

Well I just got it to work (after two weeks). I did say I was slow right!!

I must have missed the part of the instructions that tells you to NEVER change the name from Helpdesk.txt When I created a new ver I would give it a new name. They do not work with different names.

I hope this helps the next slow guy.

Thanks

Larry
