UltraVNC over VPN connection

Post by Spangster »

I am using Ultravnc to get to a 16 bit app on a Windows 2003 server. Works fine on a LAN. From home, across my VPN access into our network, I get a black screen when I access the other server.

It seems like it is connecting, but I cannot see the screen. In the office, however, I can see the screen just fine.

Please help.

Thanks.

I use a VPN from home to do similar things for work (On servers and on desktops).

I dont have any issues with the viewer.

Since it works on the LAN it should work from home also... Granted I dont know what kind of VPN you are using and if for some reason it may be blocking it?

Solution over VPN

Post by Spangster »

The issue wa stupidity on my part. The remote machine had had its blank screensaver kick in, and this made the screen black. I disabled the screensaver and have successfully used it over a VPN. Sorry for the trouble.
