UltraVNC

Thanks redge,

I closed 5500 and 5901 fore the server and now it works through WAN.

PLUS I had to assign Public IP to the Viewer (Vista) by using Gap NAT in the router which is very confusing.

The user interface to create server on the viewer is a bit confusing and it could be omproved.

Viewing XP desktop in Vista using private IP address, now it is working. But not the WAN version. How do I set Vista to eneable this ? The setting in the System Property in the Control Panel of Vista is set to allow Remote Assistance Connection. But I assume there will be other relevant settings in ...

When creating the server using the viewer, which IP address should be input, the server or the viewer ?

If the PcHelpWare_server.exe is to run on the server,

why does it try to connect to 192.168.1.6 which is ther server private IP ?

Thanks redge.

I am confused.

D:\UltraVNC stable\PCHelpWare\PcHelpWare_rel10\PcHelpWare
PcHelpWare_Viewer.exe

Do I use this exe in the Viewer PC or Server PC ?


D:\stable\PCHelpWare\PcHelpWare_rel10\PcHelpWare\myservers\VistaServer2
PcHelpWare_server.exe

Do I use this exe in the Server PC ?

Hi! I am trying to run PCHW Rel 1.0. The LAN environment is : XP Viewer Vista Server Both firewalls are disabled. Both PCs port 5500 and 5901 are port-forwarded. Both PCs are in the same LAN. The router is NAT router. When PcHelpWare_viewer.exe is run in direct connection using port 5500, after ...

What is the tech support e-mail address for UVC and SC ?

When UAC is disabled, XP can do telnet to Vista.

SC on XP cannot connect to Viewer on Vista using PublicIP.
Can you test XP to XP in the same LAN using PublicIP ?
I want to make sure if this works in XP XP environment.

I will test what will happen if UAC is disabled in Vista.

Screen saver was disbaled from the first installation of Vista.

BTW even TeamViewer cannot work, Vista to XP.
I sent e-mail to their tech support but no response yet.
TeamViewer supports Vista.

another summary: software FWs are inactivated, ports 5500, 5800, 5900 are said to be Forwarded. You use either 1 SC with more connection items, or more SCs independently with these items: -connect routerPublicIP:5500 -noregistry -connect ViewerLocalIP:5500 -noregistry eventually -connect 127.0.0.1 ...

5900 was tested for testing purpose.

Using Port 5500
SC works for private IP address!

but does not work for Public IP.

Also tested
-connect PublicIP:5900 -noregistry

Dubble Click to make a connection

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. >1o ...

Port 5500, 5800, 5900 for XP are also opened, incoming TCP packet from Internet will be routed to XP.

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 ? Port 5500, 5800, 5900 for Vista is opend ...

So far let me summarize the test results. Vista UVC Viewer XP UVC Sever in the same LAN UVC Viewer connect to Server using private ip:5900 This works OK. UVC Viewer connect to Server using public ip:5900 This does not work. SC on XP Viewer listenung on Vista no connection. 5500, 5800, 5900 ports are ...

What would be the next step to find out the reason why SC and viewer do not work ?

I called the tech support and by looking at the security log of the router the port 5500 and 5900 are portforwarded 100 %, they said. They also said that it is the application problem either the web server or UltraVNC viewer/server. I checked the setting of the UVNC server and it was auto and this ...

Kaspersky Internet Security 7 and Vista Firewall are disabled.

I will call the tech support of the router again tomorrow to triple check if the TCP 5500 is port-forwarded.

http://Public IP:5500
from SC PC
cannot connect to server !

I set the web server to port 5500.

I did not explicitly set the web server for port 5500.

Do I need to do that ?

And How ?

What is the best way to check if port 5500 is forwarded or not without using SC ?

I just asked one of my friends to try http://
and the web page was not accessible.

So I have to set the router to open port 80.

But we are testing 5500 ?

So I do not think that port 80 must be opened.

if it is not an autentication e.g. for access to domain, but access to router itself, it looks like port 5500 forwarding does not work. but what kind of router page it is ? btw if successful viewing viewer pc web page through router, it would still obviously show router address, not viewer one ...

And I can login to the router page.
After that how can I get access to the Viewer PC web server using Public IP ?

To be sure, some summary : at private IP of viewer PC is running http server ( not its console ) at 5500 viewing http://ViewerPCprivateIP:5500 shows its http page viewing http://RouterPCExternaIP:5500 shows login page , even if said to be forwarding it. how that login page looks like. does it look ...
