Request for new command line options

Post by Gustavo »

Hi All,

UltraVnc is a great and usefull remote control software, thanks for all people who work on it.

I have a little list of new command line option improvnment:

On Server :
-silent -> Inform application to don´t show any window message.
Return "0" on success. Using with "run", "connect", "install".
-connect ... -> Now, it´s necessary to exists an winvnc application already running.
My suggestion is in case there is not an winvnc instance already running, this start a new one before try connect.
-list -> echo to console a list of currently active connections (Ip & Port). The same behaviour of "List All Clients" menu option.
-kill -> Add possibility to kill some viewer using your ip addres (Getting with "list" option). The same behaviour of "Kill Client" button on "List All Clients" menu option.

On Viewer :
-list -> The same of winvnc server.
-kill -> The same of winvnc server.

regards,

Gustavo.

I'm especially interested in
-list and -kill
command prompt options.
I think it's not so hard to implement these fetures, but i'm not so advanced to do that.
Please, any developer - HELP?

I vote and totally agree, (especially for scripting local/remote managing VNC)

I think is not really a feature,
Request command are compliant between Graphic User Interface to Command Line Interface :)
UltraVNC 1.0.9.6.1 (built 20110518)
OS Win: xp home + vista business + 7 home
only experienced user, not developer

Hi to all developers.
I feel like no one reads this topic :(
I'm making (for my graduation project) a GUI in AutoIt3 for automating connections between UVNC servers and clients.
The goal is to create FREE GUI system (based on UVNC) to be used in a computerised classroom for teaching students.
I would like my program to be compatible with future releases of UVNC too.
I'm almost ready, my ONLY problem is that to see the list of connected clients or to disconnect one of the clients, I have to emulate a series of mouse clicks to envoke the menus of the system tray icon. This method is VERY messy and inconvenient. It would be much more stable if there were the -kill (or maybe -disconnect client, because the -kill option already exists) and -list command prompt options (mentioned in previos posts).
I think if you have an option to connect a host, it's logical to have an option for disconnecting it. And since it's already implemented in the GUI menu, I think it would be easy to include such an option in the command prompt.
I would apreciate, if these request are soon taken under consideration. My deadline is 20'th of September.
After my project is finished, I plan on releasing it in the "UVNC related products" section.
Thank you in advance!

I wander if someone at least tell me if there is a slight chance of implementing these features in UltraVNC. :(

I wonder if it would be possible to turn on logging and parse the log file to find out who has connected.

Good Luck
