UltraVNC

Whoah... this looks very interesting.

Can't test it yet, but I'll certainly follow this thread for the experiences of others

You can view both.
For easiest access install the mirrordriver on the server-pc, so you can just scroll down to the second screen.

Windows normally doesn't support multiple session simultaneously like for example Linux does.
When you connect to a Windows-VNCserver you can only connect to the current user.

I think the strong point of a GUI is when you can see in the blink of an eye how everything works. And it's that way with the first two GUIs. But the file-transfer modification isn't that functional I think. It's because it's a top/bottom division, and the send and receive aren't at all clear in ...

It's a good one, but isn't it so that magic packets aren't TCP or UDP?

So it'll be a problem because you would first have to be on the internal network before you could send the packet... (thus have to be controlling a PC).
So in many cases this isn't possible (or at least it isn't easy).

To be more clear: The 'Add new client' feature is part of every VNC flavour (unless they've thrown it out). Because the server is initiating a connection with the client, the client has to forward any incoming ports (instead of the server when the client is connecting to the server). This is a ...

Yeah UltraVNC
Look at SC

If you mean that you can control a computer which uses a dual-screen setup to have more workingspace: it is already implemented. With MirrorDriver: Just push your mouse to the left or right to scroll to the second screen. Without MirrorDriver: Push a button (return to fullscreen button) to switch ...

I agree, it would be nice to have that.

As far as I know it can't be done. It's because this viewer is totally focussed on the RFB protocol (used in VNC-servers), the standard protocol and the extensions made for UltraVNC. The RDP protocol on the other hand is a totally different protocol and it hasn't been implemented (probably because ...

Hey! don't forget the unzip and zip dlls! (unzip32.dll & zip32.dll)
That is... if you want to be able to transfer whole directories across your remote-control-connection...
(And I'm sure because I've just tested it to be sure )

This is probably a classic case of a NAT-problem.

Pleasure read other forum posts, before starting a new topic with the same old questions.

No it's because your reading old messages.
The XX_XX versions were test-versions and are already deleted.
The last version is the one you can find on: http://www.sf.net/projects/ultravnc/
It's 19.6 if i'm not mistaking.

You can enable the viewer to act as a 'listening server'. Which means that another computer (the one you want to control) can connect to the 'listening server'. And after it's connected, you can control that pc.
So the connect-to part is reversed, but the rest is the same.

I think that PC Anywhere supports having PC configurations with 2 monitors attached. So that when a window is on the second monitor, the remote user can still reach it. This is also supported by UltraVNC. When using the video-driver you can just move to the second screen. And when you don't use the ...

Not that i know of, but you could disable the system tray icon all together. Than you don't have to worry about it changing color.

If you want to know what the 'ID' does...

Check out the repeater + documenation.

Could you be a little more specific?

Do you mean, you can connect with VNC to a WinNT4 machine. And after you enter the password you are directly logged in?
'cause that's right. If you didn't log out, you don't have to log in.

I vote for it too... and... I've done this with a little script. Using Sysinernals' psexec to execute and Iexpress Wizard (iexpress.exe, shipped within windows) to create a self-installing package. In the script you use psexec.exe with some commandline options to start the self-installer, and the ...

The password you entered the previous time, was a User Password (AKA User Settings). Now that you've set up UltraVNC as a system service, you need a system-password (AKA Default Settings). This is only asked once. If you enter a password you'll have rid yourself of this enormous problem

This probably is a typical NAT-router problem.
The typical ADSL-modem also has a router functionality build into its system.
You should try to connect to your router using http://<routerip> and maybe you can configure port-forwaring to the right internal IP.

What you can do, and it works for me, is only fill in the filename. Because you do not specify a path-to-file, the viewer looks in the current working directory. And unless you specify a different working directory in you shortcut, this is the directory where the viewer is started from. So if you ...
