Access Restriction based on IP address

Post by ilkera »

There is one new feature that makes a nice difference about IP security in Real VNC 4.0.
This new release of RealVNC makes it possible to restrict access based on IP address of the client.
Will this feature will be addedd to UltraVNC soon ?
I guess it should not be something very difficult; am I wrong ?

Regards,
ilker

This already building

AuthHosts : The AuthHosts setting is, unlike the other settings, a REG_SZ string. It is used to specify a set of IP address templates which incoming connections must match in order to be accepted. By default, the template is empty and connections from all hosts are accepted. The template is of the form:
+[ip-address-template]
?[ip-address-template]
-[ip-address-template]
In the above, [ip-address-template] represents the leftmost bytes of the desired stringified IP-address. For example, +192.168 would match both 192.168.12.10 and 192.168.14.2. Multiple match terms may be specified, delimited by the ":" character. Terms appearing later in the template take precedence over earlier ones. e.g. -:+192.168: would filter out all incoming connections except those beginning with 192.168. Terms beginning with the "?" character are treated by default as indicating hosts from whom connections must be accepted at the server side via a dialog box. The QuerySetting option determines the precise behaviour of the three AuthHosts options.

It is implemented as registry setting,...it exist already for
a year in the code.

There is no graphical menu for it, you need to set it via the registry.

Could someone tell me the exact location of this "AuthHosts" file, as I have been unable to find it in my registry
