hi NiTr0
Can you post the AUTOIT code of SCBuilder beta 2?
here is the code for upnp port forward

Code: Select all

$theNatter = ObjCreate( "HNetCfg.NATUPnP")
Dim $mappingPorts
$mappingPorts = $theNatter.StaticPortMappingCollection
dim $vncport
$vncport = 16800
If IsObj($mappingPorts) Then
 $mappingPorts.Add ($vncport, "TCP",$vncport, @IPAddress1, True, "UVNC")
 ProcessWaitClose("vncviewer.exe")
 $mappingPorts.Remove ($vncport, "TCP")
 MsgBox(0, "Ports removed", "UVNC PORT REMOVED")
Else
  MsgBox(0, "ERROR","Could not create a uPnP object")
 EndIf

is there a way to disable the autoreconnect?

hi,

I'm trying to use SC with repeater. All works fine in mode2 but i have 1 question :

-Is it possible in SC Server to ask user which ID to use ?

Did you try building it with "????" for the repeater ID?
I'm not 100% certain it will work that way given the way this sets the connection info and starts. But it costs nothing for you to try it.

The way it is coded, it is not currently possible ... and unless nitro wants to release his code to the masses, we have to wait till he updates it.

is there a way to disable the autoreconnect?

ah ... no ... and why would you want to ???

[wendel]

In our case,

Now we work with an old version of uvnc sc. so a customer needs to double click to make a connection. Other side needs to approve. When de screen on the other site is closed, the connection is ended.

Only problem is vista.

With this version vista is possible, but when the "helpdesk side" doesn’t need to approve the connection, I’m afraid that the server will be flooded with connections.

[JDaus]

With this version vista is possible, but when the "helpdesk side" doesn’t need to approve the connection, I’m afraid that the server will be flooded with connections.

Thats correct, because of the fact that this version uses UVNC server, and not UVNC SC.

The feature of asking for connection was only in the SC (i personally don't know why they didn't give an option for it in server) version, so anything using Server will not prompt for connection acceptance ... its a bit of a pain really

[redge]

so anything using Server will not prompt for connection acceptance ... its a bit of a pain really

should be really an option
because some users like it and some user don't want prompt, just double clik on SC and connected to viewer listening.
like would you like really exit of software, some like the prompt and other don't want.

I've been trying to get the Logo to look better - I found that if you make your original image 142x119 and save the jpeg at 100 quality it looks acceptable. Be nice if it could use bmp format like the original SC.

I'm using fireworks to resize my bmp format logo which is larger down to the above size - then I convert it to jpg at 100 % quality.

I'd like this too. If I close the viewer because I'm finished supporting my customer, it will then automatically reconnect until the customer quits the server.

In my experience some customers have a habit of wondering away from the computer, or not doing what you ask - so the ability to stop remote support is pretty important.

[kayman]

you can just right click and select UNINSTALL on the client by yourself on the clients machine and it will terminate your session and remove the software.

[chickendippers]

Ohh I hadn't thought of that. Very cunning

Open source SC Builder [post=56840]available HERE[/post] ([post=56840][/post])

its not as pretty as nitro's ... but it works, has unlimited pre-configured connections and it took me 5 hours to create and test (including writing the post and screenshots, which seamed to take longer than the rest)

I have used this tool to create server.exe and listener - It crashes when I try to perform larger file transfers (not using clipboard, in fact not touching pc while files are copying).

I saw some notes about notray but it's based on 1.05.2. Does anyone have advice on for people who want to do large file transfers. I would even leave this tool as is and use a direct file transfer tool installed at my location and the recipients if needed.

[redge]

file transfer is limited of 1GB reported by user, why ? don't know.
ultravnc server won't check if there enough space at destination.

I'm trying to get this setup using our repeater. Advantig One Click seems to work, but I like the options this solution supplies.

Here's what I'm trying:
Repeater: 172.16.1.254
Public IP: 1.2.3.4

UltraDistributor Settings (repeater) V1.1.0.4
5901 Accept
5500 Listen
[x] Enable Mode 1
[x] Enable Mode 2

I want to make it so that someone downloads the server.exe and clicks one of the buttons that connects to the repeater. I then connect to the repeater to connect to their machine. I like this because I can work on 3 machines at once.

However, I cannot seem to connect to the other machines (running server.exe). What do I use the viewer for? Is that like a server without a repeater (it just listens on port 5500 for an incoming connection?)

Thanks.

[ZystemsK]

Ok, so I opened VNCViewer and set ID:203 and used the Proxy/Repeater option and put 172.16.1.254:5901 and it launches and closes VNC instantly. Any ideas why it won't connect?

[redge]

with repeater in the middle,
vnc server don't listen, it initiate outgoing connection with ID:1234to repeater,
vncviewer don't listen, it initate connection with ID:1234 to repeater.
then repeater check if ID:1234 number match is ok, connected them together.

Hello!
I get the following error, when executing the server.exe:

AutoIT Error
Line -1:
Error: Variable used without being declared

Strange thing is, that the server.exe worked on my WinXP SP3 without any problems.
I get the same error on WinXP SP2 and Vista SP1. Both versions are english with regional settings to "Estonia".

Any idea what to do?

[JDaus]

AutoIT Error
Line -1:
Error: Variable used without being declared

This doesn't surprise me, as many variables are used within his code without being declared first. in my opinion it is very messy code ... (but then, i'm not a coder )

try selecting a few different things (or rather unselecting) and see if you can get it to compile and run without errors, then figure out which setting is making it break, and if you can do without that ...

sorry i can't be of any more use, but nitro has made it plain to me that he wishes to keep his source closed, so therefore i will not help him debug it ...

I'm getting the same thing but with XP machines as well. It seems to have worked for a day and then stopped. I copied the rc4.key and DSM plugin to my UltraVNC directory and created a .VNC to auto connect. I'm not sure what else to do.

[j8994]

well hopefully nitro will fix this issue.

[Philman]

Took me a while to get everything to work from this program, though now it works great (for me)! Just thought I'd post my little solutions to get it to work for those starting out.

For all those who get the:

Error: Error opening the destination file.

Auto2Exe is detected by most Antivirus. I found that is was my antivirus that was causing the problem. If I disabled the resident shield then ran the builder, I had no problems. I couldn't find an answer for this on the forum so I thought I add it here in case.

Also I don't use the viewer build by SCBuilder, I find I don't need to use it as the standard one works fine.

By default, the disable Aero Option does not work through the builders gui interface. If you go into the bin folder and edit the ultravnc.ini file, you can set the RemoveAero flag to 1 which forces the builder to add this option.

As for disconnecting, I just remote control and right click on the icon and click uninstall. It allows me to reconnect if I lose connection for any reason, plus it removes all the changes and programs it installs.

I know this doesn't resolve all the issues but it should help some people.

Hi guys, I must be missing something here, I can get Uvnc to work over my lan and remotely building the SC fles manually and using SCbuilder 2009. However, if I use the encryption I cant connect with the last two.
If i run the server manually and configure the encryption with the key everythings ok. When I build the server with SCBuilder, or SC manually, do I need to copy the new key to my VNC directory, because thats what I have been doing but it still doesnt work ..
great program btw...
any help appreciated ..
thanks

This is working beautifully for me, but I just have one little thing that's bugging me slightly...

Do other people have this problem: When under remote control, the server PC cursor disappears?

On the viewer end you can see a cursor as usual, but on the other end... nothing.

You just see icons magically moving around, things opening etc... but no cursor.

Does anyone know of a way to re-enable the cursor? It's just handy when you're trying to point things out to people at the other end and you say "Look at this here" (and point with your cursor) and they go "Look at what? I can't see what you're doing!"

The reason anyone gets this is actually simple. When you create your RC4.key file it will make one in the directory called new_rc4.key. If you did NOT create your own key that is a problem also, you have to create one the way it tells you to.

Anyway once created you can rename the original rc4.key to rc4.key_old and rename your new_rc4.key to rc4.key within your directory. Now you also have to copy this newly created key to your custom.zip overwriting it's original. The key in the custom.zip and in your programs directory have to be the exact same file - thus creating the encryption between remote system and your system.

The people with this problem are not using the exact same 2 keys meaning one on your machine and the one in custom.zip. Once you fix this issue you'll see the error will no longer exist.

Hi guys, new to this remote stuff and managed to get a conection between to LAN PC's but on connection, after it asks my server if I want to allow the connection it just jumps back and keeps asking the same question

I have ensured the password is the same in both INI files and I have tried with/without the MSRC4Plugin.dsm .

Please help as I am now completely stuck
I hope it's a simple fix lol

Thanks in advance

UPDATED 22/05/09 @ 22:57

I have now tried this every way possible, and whether I am doing it on local network with 192.168.1.50 or throught my online IP address I get the loop I have redone the password and recopied it to the INI file.
I have ensured my router has port 5900 forwarded to 192.168.1.50.

I am completetly stuck here guys, any help would be appreciated

Hello all. I have been going through the thread and decided to install this software. It works (which is more than I can say for others). I am wondering if the project is still being worked on. I have not seen a post from NiTr0 in some time now. Is he still working on this?

I have not installed the new GUI beta version. Can anyone say if it is all the rage and if it is worth installing and recommending to IT professionals in the real world.

Thanks and I look forward to hearing from you.
