Multiple Listening Viewers

Post by tylan »

Is there any problem with having more than one listening viewer running? I was testing one listening on 5800 & 6800. I want to be able to work on two computers at once. Obviously, I have to update SC to have a different lines for each viewer (i.e. technician 1a and technician 1b). Is there anything wrong with this?

use ID and open 2 ports for repeate or use the public repeater without opening any port to your customer and your technicians

I thought that the repeater was slower than the direct connection.... doesn't the repeater add latency? Or is it not noticeable?

yes, repeater add double latency,
from viewer to repeater --> server then back server to repeater to viewer

for direct connection, yes you can start many viewer as you prefer.
but never make vncviewer -listen 5900 is always fail, not listen on this port.

possible:
vncviewer -listen 5500
vncviewer -listen 5501
vncviewer -listen 5502
etc...

That's what I meant from the beginning... Very good.

I just wanted to make sure there was not issues with multiple viewers running. Thanks!
