Connection Error using DSM plugin

Post by Indiana »

Hi all!
I'd been using VNC a lot for the last few years and never got any problems i couldnt solve but this one i had while trying to enable encryption plugin in order to setup a secure conection using UltraVNC-SC.

Scenario
- PC1 Runs VNCViewer in listening mode on port 5500 by the following start command:
vncviewer.exe -listen -dsmplugin MSRC4Plugin.dsm

- PC2 runs ultraVNC-SC for Rel1.00.
- UltraVNC-SC [host] section inside helpdesk.txt file:
[HOST]
Test 128bits encryption
-plugin -connect X.X.X.X:5500 -noregistry


- 128bits rc4.key and MSRC4Plugin.dsm files are the same on both PCs

When PC2 calls PC1 the result is :
Connection failed - Error reading Protocol Version
Possible causes:
- You've forgotten to select a DSMPlugin and the Server used a DSMPlugin
- Viewer and Server are not compatible (they use a different RFB protocoles) << misstypo?o.O

Can u guys tell what am I doing wrong?

Tx in advance.
Cheers

Also make sure when creating the exe that you use

The creator based on rel1.00 allow defaults to be overwritten.

the following works great:
UltraVNC ServerSC 20.03(Rel1.00)
