Re: UltraVNC Management Console - Version 1.0.5 Push Support

Post by sbostedor »

Version 2008.11.11 Released

FIX: Connecting to RDP used to require XP Sp3 or Vista SP1 to be applied due to a logic bug. Now, the only requirement is that your RDP version is 6.0 or higher. If you attempt to connect to a RDP or Terminal Server and you have RDP 5 or less on your computer, you will be prompted to upgrade and provided a download link. This is happening because Microsoft chantged the way that RDP worked for console sessions in RDP 6.

Fix: Setting the "console" option in the group properties was ignored. It worked if you set it at the group properties, however.

Other: Minor fixes and tweaks to improve performance.

UltraVNC Management Console with Service Monitoring

Post by sbostedor »

Download: http://www.bozteck.com/vncscan/downloads/

Release Notes:

2009.1.22

# New: Email alerting for the service status of VNC, RDP, and Ping. If any of them change state from up or down between background scans, you can be alerted by email or run various commands. This can be set in the group properties and overridden by the computer properties for fine tuning.
# New: You can choose to run one of your remote scripts when a computer is back up on the network. This is an excelent way to schedule a script for laptops or other computers that are not always on the network
# New: You can have VENM automatically connect to VNC for you when the computer comes back onto the network. Once the computer is detected by a background scan and the VNC service is reachable, VENM will open the VNC connection to the computer for you.
# New: Execute local custom commands when a computer falls off the network.
# Fix: Eliminated the old scrserv method of capturing remote screen shots. You should no longer need to fight with oversealous virus scanners for this feature to work. Note that the new method does require that the remotely monitored comptuers have at least the Microsoft .NET Feamework 2.0 or later installed on them. In today's Windows world, that's pretty much a given.
# New: Improved the screen for creating custom commands
New: Screen shots now work for Vista computers! Of course,you still need to supply VNCScan with an administrative login and password in order to have access to the remote desktop but that's it! No VNC needs to be installed for this feature to work.

Version 2009.2.3 has been released!

Download: http://www.bozteck.com/vncscan/downloads.html

Release Notes:

2009.2.3

* fix: Fixed the problem with MS Login connections where tje computer settings was overriding the group settings even if the password was blank. More info here.
* Fix: There were various bugs with the new deployment setup that needed to be fixed.

2009.2.2

* New: The VNC deployment process has been revamped to be more intuitive. The wizard driven method in the previous version was adequate for it's day but it didn't scale well to things like diting profiles. There is an overview of what has changed here.
* Fix: There was one more bug that involved determining if VENM should use the IP address or resolved host name when running commands and connecting to VNC.
* Fix: When deploying UltraVNC version 1.0.5, it would not obey the setting to deploy without the shortcut icons
* Fix: When deploying UltraVNC version 1.0.5, the video driver would often not install even if you selected to do so. Be aware, thought, that this video driver is unsigned. This may cause Vista and Windows Server to prompt the desktop user to OK the installation. If you know of a scriptable way to force unsigned drivers on these operating systems, please let us know in the forums and we'll pass that knowledge around.
* Fix: When setting a custom command line for VNC caused an error to show when connecting using Windows authentication.

2009.1.28

* Update: Thumbnails now work without the requirement of the .NET 2.0 framework on Windows XP. If you have been using a previous version and already have thumbnails going, you may want to remove all of the thumbnails and then re-add them again if the thumbnails don't show up pretty quickly after the upgrade. If you have to do this, it is only once. The reason for this is to reset the thumbnail configuration for each computer to use the new method.
* Update: The thumbnail screen catcher now gets both monitors in a multi-monitor situation. In previous versions, it only snapped the main monitor.
* Fix: The VNC password changing wizard has been revamped on the back end to be much more reliable in less than ideal networking conditions. If you tried this feature and it didn't work for you in the past, you'll want to give it another go, now.
* Fix: When deploying VNC to computers using Microsoft's MSAuthenication method, the computer properties for those computers was modified to force windows authentication for VNC but with a blank username and password. This caused a lot of work and pain because it overrode the group preferences. This is no longer being done.
* Fix: Lots of i's have been dotted and t's have been crossed. Version number enhanced.

2009.1.26

* Update: Made some finishing touches on the thumbnail screen capture feature. We've dramatically lowered the number of event log entries that get made on the remote computer while screen captures are being done, There were also a lot of speed optimizations done that should be noticeable.

I use Bozteck and love it. I do, however, have a feature request. When we remote into a computer, we have to use the CAD button to allow us to enter the login/password. Is it possible to have a drop-down menu that will autofill the password?

Essentially, we would add user names and passwords to Bozteck that would be used to log into Windows. A button would be added to the VNC toolbar at the top that would, when clicked, list the user names and autofill in the Windows logon password when selected.

We usually login as the same user on each machine, so if only one user can be added that would work. Everyone that uses the program knows the administrator password, so it's not essential that it MUST find the password box and fill it in. It could just dump the text to the selected area.

I hope that makes sense. I'm tired.

* Mirror Driver: The UltraVNC mirror driver problem has been fixed for UltraVNC 1.0.5.x. It now deploys correctly in Vista and XP.

I made a small improvement to the download of 2009.9.11 and updated the subversion to 092. The change affects the way that the program uses Vista and Windows 7 UAC when launching.

I want to thank everyone for supporting VNCScan! I enjoy bringing it to you and making your work day at least a little bit easier.

Bozteck VNCScan Updated - includes support for 1.0.8

Post by sbostedor »

Download: http://www.bozteck.com/vncscan/downloads.html

Changes:

# Interface updates

* Combined the top tool bars and menu into one for more real estate on the screen
* Modified the way that the VNC versions are listed in the deployment tool (to make more sense)

# Updated to the latest UltraVNC 1.0.8 Server and Viewer
# Fixed an annoyance on some computers where selecting an RDP tab didn't directly select the RDP session (causing a beeping sound and no interaction)
# Added an RDP toolbar button for Full Screen
# Added an RDP toolbar button to toggle stretching (stretches the RDP window to size when the whole window is resized)
# Updated the remote screen thumbnails feature to better detect the method of capture based upon operating system and other environmental factors. Should be faster to update and use even less resources on the remote computers.
# Fixed the remote thumnails failure on some Windows 7 computers
# Fixed a bug with the "Deploy to selected" toolbar menu item that caused it to only select the first computer of a multiple selection.

* Updated to UltraVNC 1.0.8.2 Their release notes are here.

2009.12.4

* New LAN Speed Tester - Transfers a chunk of data of customizable size to and from a remote computer share and reports the download and upload speed. While this is an extremely useful new feature, there are plans to make it even better soon. Great for determining where network bottlenecks are.

* Improved the multi-monito support for the thumbnails
* Added selectable subfolders for remote scripts.
* Fixed some other bugs that affected remote computer authentication

Post by sbostedor »

Please see http://www.bozteck.com/blog for added features and updates

Download: http://www.bozteck.com/vncscan/downloads.html

* UltraVNC x64 is now deployed to remote x64 computers automatically

* Fixed: The UltraVNC video driver wouldn’t install properly on some XP systems. Keep in mind that x64 systems have new driver signing requirements that prompt the user upon install. For this reason, we suggest that you manually install the video driver if required on x64 computers.

* Deployment tool remembers the last profile you pushed and selects it automatically.

* Deployment tool chooses the correct system drive letter for the remote system, now. It used to only use c$.

* Lots of other “just little things” fixes and tweaks all through the program.
