Change Display Name in Chat?

Post by FFoA »

Is it possible to change the name that is displayed when you are chatting with someone you are connected to? Currently it shows my computer name - but I would like it to display my actual name so the users are not confused.

Please advise?

Thanks!

I agree that this would be a welcome feature.

Maybe a ChatName= in the ultravnc.ini?
