Failed to get server address

Post by widefat »

When I open UVNC viewer, I have a list of device names and IP addresses. Where is the list stored?

Second question -
For a particular device, I can open the session by entering the IP address. The computer name of the particular device also appears on the list, but when I select the name, I receive a "failed to get server address" error.
I assigned the IP and selected the name, so I am sure it is not a duplicate name or IP.

Any ideas are appreciated!

The list is stored in the file: options.vnc
This file is found in the same folder as my VNCViewer.exe, but I'm not sure if that's always the case.

"Failed to get server address" means the name you entered cannot be resolved to an IP address. It's not a VNC problem, but rather a name resolution problem.
