Re: Resamling resize

Thanks.
In fact, I know tabbed viewer exists, but I have never used it, neither thought it is able to do it :-)
I was searching for resizing, but results did not lead me toward tabbed viewer.

Resamling resize

Would be possible, without affecting compatibility, to implement
any resampling resize algorithm ? At least bilinear as one of simplest.
Possibly in both server and/or viewer side.

Current resize in near to 1.00 ratios is so horrible,
that I never use it, prefering screen scrolling or smaller window.

Re: PcHelpWare and 7-zip vulnerability

Well, one can download 7za.exe from 7zip site dowload page<, rename it to 7z.exe and put it there.

Or, copy there 7z.exe from 7-zip folder, should be ok.

Or, replace in PCHW related batch files 7z.exe by pathname of you genuine 7z.exe in 7-zip folder.

I suppose you need PCHW viewer.
PCHW is said to be compatible with UVNC only on helphesk.txt level, not in protocol level. It is different product.

Re: Symantec client Firewall

It remembers the rule, but for full pathname, not for all files with the same filehash.
So, there is no sense for making permanent rule for one time only program.
Use permit once option, with no rule creation.

Re: SC newbee

But afaik SC is not listening, only manually initiated outgoing connection is allowed.

If you install 7zip, you can easily open SC executable and see, what connection parameters are written in embedded helpdesk.txt file.

by menu I mean 1o more text line yoy are about to doubleclick to connect.

Re: SC newbee

to clarify:
Does it mean 5500 is forwarded to viewer / vista,
nad 5800,5900 to XP / winvnc server ?

and SC / XP does not connect to viewer / vista even by local connection ?

do you have both items in SC menu for remote and for local conection to Viewer ?

your friend needs to use http://address:5500
othervise browser obviously use default http port 80

We do not need to test http, but port 5500, whatever there is listening....
And check SW Firewall on viewer PC, if any,
to be either off or allowing incoming TCP connection for webserver
