How to Upgrade?

Post by Kenwong »

I just noticed that version 1.0.2 has been released. How can I upgrade the one (version 1.0.1) I am using on the server? I am using MS RC4 plugin on both the sever (UltraVNC 1.0.1) and the viewer (UltraVNC Win32 version 1.2.9) ends. Can I upgrade the server remotely, with encryption plug-in being used?

with actual dsmplugin stream is not possible.

if you have remote desktop , you can copy uvnc 1.0.2 bin.zip
and rename actual ultravnc as ultravnc-bak, and create folder ultravnc
and copy files there (and you can remove rc4.key at both side server+client)

but warning is not fully work with windows 2000 and rc4.key!
dsmplugin 1.2.0.0 can work without key with windows 2000 and XP

Thaks redge.

If I disable DSM plugin on both sides, is it possible to install (instead of copy files) over 1.0.1 on server?

And do I need to uninstall 1.0.1 first?
dsmplugin 1.2.0.0 can work without key with windows 2000 and XP
How about with Windows XP on server and Windows 98 on viewer?

I don't know, I had overwrittten locally all existing files 1.0.1 by 1.0.2
I was not uninstalled 1.0.1 but locally just overwritten old files.

How about with Windows XP on server and Windows 98 on viewer?
xp pro as vnc server and win98 as vncviewer
work successfully direct connection
(tested without dsmplugin and without repeater)
