UltraVNC

Trying to do this myself... I run:
ares@Steven:~$ cd Desktop/staci_office
ares@Steven:~/Desktop/steven_vnc$ sudo wine vncviewer.exe -config steven_office.txt
Password:
Error 57 during CryptGetKeyParam!

I get a DSMPlugin error, and the error in the terminal window. I'm kind of new at this. Anyone ...

Thanks, redge. I've been gone too long, evidently...

I'm not entirely sure, but I think EchoVNC might be cross-platform. You might check into that. That's about all I can think of.


-Ares

I would definitely use repeater instead of doing this. Give one machine a static IP, then set up around 10 ID numbers that connect to repeater. Much much easier. =)

I get the same thing. Guess you're the first to ever want more than ~30 connections, eh? lol

But yes, I agree it's probably a buffer overflow of some sorts. Mine actually adds some garbage on almost every line.

As you see, there's ...

As far as I know, you either use the MS-Login or the VNC authentication. If such a "fall-back" authentication was in place, it may defeat the extra security that using MS-Login provides, in my opinion.

From what (little) I've heard, MS-Login is still being tweaked. You might add something about ...

7-zip will do it, if the archive isn't solid. If it's solid, unpack all files, replace the files you want, re-pack and then make self-extracting.

There are guides in the forums about manually making SC with 7-zip.

And I'm not sure if replacing vnchooks.dll will break anything. The winvnc.exe WILL ...

Hm, I see I'm not alone now.

I use encryption on port 1720 (VoIP port). That port is usually not limited.

See my last post in this thread:

Ps. What ISP do you have? Might help others on your ISP realize what's wrong. I'm Cebridge (www.cebridge.net).


-Ares

Wow, I was right. My ISP is speed-limiting port 5500. I guess because they saw how much data I had been using over that port. My ISP really really sucks!

I changed the port to 1720, the standard VoIP port which usually isn't limited. Works like a charm. So, anyone having drastic speed problems with ...

I'm now wondering if perhaps my ISP is throttling VNC data. It already throttles Bittorrent data. I've heard rumors that some ISP's are doing this. I'm going to try using encryption and see if that helps.

Precisely what I was thinking. I wish I knew someone who still used Windows 98 so I could test lol

-Ares

I usually have it use Auto, but a few times (including last time) I right-clicked the Listening viewer and went to Default Options and told it to use Tight with 64 colors. Then I told the person to run my SC. That should essentially do the same thing, right? I'm assuming you think there's not enough ...

Okay, I've ruled out SC. It's not SC's fault. It's something with my machine. I just have no idea what. I contacted a friend and had her run my latest build. No good. She then asked if she should "delete the old one" - to which I realized she still had an old copy of my SC that had previously worked ...

But yeah, it just sits at loading, and eventually will freeze. If I let it sit for another minute or two, I'll get the screen, but it will be so slow it is unusable. I'll click the start menu, and nothing for another minute. And this is over 384k cable connections. Shouldn't be this bad, especially ...

Thanks redge... yeah, that's what I'm using though.

What's the latest version of vnchooks.dll for SC? I'm thinking that might be the culprit. Though, isn't that only used when connecting to Win9x/ME?

-Ares

Actually, I guess that is the one I was using. The MD5 hashes match.

So, yeah, that's not it unfortunately


-Ares

Hello friends, long time no see.

I've recently started having problems with SC. For some reason, any time I use SC to connect to someone, it runs horribly slow. Most of the time it just stays black with the loading screen. If I wait about 3 minutes, something will come up, but clicking something as ...

Are you using a wireless network somewhere in between the two machines?


-Ares

BTW: Is there a solution with SC V1 ?

I believe scIII is only BETA state.

Markus

No, there isn't a way to do this with SC v1.0 because the idea of doing this is what prompted the devs to create SCIII in the first place. And it's still in beta because they're still testing this exact feature ...

Make sure sure both the Viewer and Server are the same version.


-Ares

No problem =)

I agree - at least make the View Only "checked" in the right-click menu like some of the other features.

yellow connected to repeater
green connected to viewer or to server

I too would love this feature, although then I'd have to design another icon haha

If you need a hash summer that does directories and subdirectories, here's two command-line tools that can do the job:

http://www.codeproject.com/cpp/rehash.asp
http://www.slavasoft.com/fsum/

Also freeware. I can't find one with a GUI, like md5summer - my personal favorite, before MD5 was broken ...

HashCalc (freeware)

http://www.slavasoft.com/hashcalc/

Major Features:

*Support of 12 well-known and documented hash and checksum algorithms: MD2, MD4, MD5, SHA-1, SHA-2( 256, 384, 512), RIPEMD-160, PANAMA, TIGER, ADLER32, CRC32.

*Support of a custom hash algorithm (MD4-based) used in eDonkey ...

*bump*

Any resolution for this?


Thanks,

I use HashTab (MD5, SHA1, CRC-32), personally.

Haha, I actually do this already. Every program I've tried is so slow to update the webcam. So I just have both computers run the video locally, and then we use UVNC to remote in and select that window. It's almost real-time.

I admit a video-chat program based on the mirror driver would be awesome ...

I can't get either way to work.

When I do local to remote, it creates the temporary zip file but then never extracts it - it just deletes it.
