Newuser - Parameter for sc ;-)

Post by elscom »

I hope I am not the only .....

this shouldt work - or not (and when not - damn why not?)

winvnc_scii_rc23 -plugin aesv2plugin.dsm -connect 127.0.0.1:5502 -noregistry

The only what is - there is a window "winvnc usage" !?

If i try the parameter -plugin .... behind the -connect then winvnc will connect. But I think the parameter is ignored (it makes no connection).

Can someone help my stupid brain?! ;-)

as my knowledge,

winvncsc:

this could not work.
it require helpdesk.txt with minimal entry below:

--------------------------helpdesk.txt--------------------
[HOST]
-plugin -connect 127.0.0.1:5502 -noregistry
--------------------------helpdesk.txt--------------------

-plugin load hardcoded file name msrc4plugin.dsm
so if you need aesv2plugin.dsm, you need to rename to msrc4plugin.dsm


vncviewer:
"%programfiles%\UltraVNC\vncviewer.exe" -listen 5502 -dsmplugin aesv2plugin.dsm
don't forget to complete field the working directory of your vncviewer shortcut should be same of target of vncviewer file.

This was the Answer!

I renamed the plugin to ms.... and it will be loaded (whitout helpdesk.txt)!

But (a new problem) :-)

the parameter -password wont work

winvnc.exe -plugin -connect ..... works (with aes...)
winvnc.exe -plugin -password password -connect .... wont work!

any suggestions for that (hopefully) ;-)

edit:
If I try starting the vncviewer in listen mode with -password password then the winvnc.exe say he could not connect (no asking a password).

If I try starting vncviewer without password and start winvnc - he ask me what password I will use?! (aesplugin needs a password)

Why that??

-password not work,

viewer don't aknowledge authentication for reverse connection
this the reason why password not work from winvnc
you need to use a aesv2.key at both side for bypass the password

Thanks for the answer - I think I use the msrc plugin ...

(But for what is the -password option?)

aesv2 can is usable by two ways:

with password (with registry involved) , aesv2.key NOT required, but optional with password = double security or single security
without password (no registry involved), aesv2.key REQUIRED without password. single security.

so you cannot use SC with password because it won't use registry

Sorry - but what must be in the aesv2.key? Is it like the rc4.key so that I can use these?

A second Question is (msrc4 plugin works for me now) how the encryption works?
The reason why i will use the aes plugin (with password) is that this plugin generates a session-key.
Do the msrc4 plugin use the rc4.key for encryption (i think it do so) or generates a unique session-key from it (my c++ isn't so good ;-) )?
