So I've been banging my head over this for several hours today, and even the excelent help on this forum hasn't quite been helpful enough. So here's the problem:
I can get SC to connect directly to my viewer just fine.
the viewer is listening mode, with the repeater [host] string of
"-connect 10.120.10.38:5500 -noregistry"
works perfectly.
But when I throw in the repeater, it all falls appart. My string is:
"-id 106 -connect 10.120.10.38:5902 -noregistry"
I had to change the port to 5902, since the repeater was unable to bind to 5901. Also, the repeater and the viewer are both running on my PC for now, so I disabled mode II. I think I only need mode I anyway, since the intended connection will look like:
[tech's PC]---[repeater]---[our firewall]---[Internet]---[client's firewall, which we have no control over]---[client's PC, with SC].
It looks like it starts up fine
Version 107
socket() initialized
bind() succeded to port 5902
listen() succeded
When I run the SC (on another machine within our network) I get
accept() connection
Viewer added to list 106
So it looks sorta like it works. Except that it thinks there is a viewer connecting. That is throwing me off a bit.
This is where I get stuck. If I try with to connect to the repeater via VNC viewer with the settings (VNC Server) "ID: 106" and (Proxy/Repeater) "10.120.10.38:5902" it says
accept() connection
and that's it. That's the best result I've gotten so far. What should I be doing differently? Please help!

SC with repeater
Re: SC with repeater
repeater = mode II
id number require mode II enabled
both side can be NAT firewalled.
replace 5900 by 0 for accept mode II function (id number)
[topic=1340][/topic]
proxy/distributor = mode I
don't require id, but is direct connection, won't allow bypass NAT
one side require port open.
UltraVNC viewer connect via repeaterI to UltraVNC server
id number require mode II enabled
both side can be NAT firewalled.
replace 5900 by 0 for accept mode II function (id number)

Re: SC with repeater
Thank you for the response, but unfortunately it did not yield any results. Am I to understand that to use the SC functionality as described I MUST set the repeater to use mode II? Also, none of the pictures in the link you posted loaded for me. Perhaps they could be reposted? It is a very old post...
