SC and ID code: please help!

Post by iceman_cibba »

Hi. I am new on this forum.
My company is using since a long time ultravnc to give remote support, using the repeater. I have the vnc repeater started on my internal windows server, with port 5500 forwarded correctly from my ADSL router to the lan private ip address of the server where the repeater is active.
When a customer needs our assistance, they start vnc server on their pc, then "add new client", in the host name they digit our public internet ip address, and in ID code they digit "ID:xx", where xx is 12 for me, 15 for my colleague, etc etc.
On my pc, I start the vnc viewer, then write ID:12, and flag proxy/reapeter using "myserver:5901", where myserver is the name of the server where is active the reapeter and the relative port.

Well: it works very well, I am very happy with it and use that lots of times every day.

BUT. But i would like not to repeat anymore my public ip address (or dns name) to our customers, since they are so dumb that they fail to write it usually.
So, I am trying to create a single click executable, with our ip and ID code, so our customers, just need to double click and....THAT'S IT!

But, I am not able to reach my goal. If I create one "simple" SC, without ID code (and without using our repeater), it works perfectly. But, if I use the syntax
-connect xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:5500 -id ID:12 -noregistry
there's no way it works. The SC executes, goes in the tray, but no connection with my viewer....

Where do I fail? What is the correct syntax to use SC and ID/repeater?

Hope somebody can help me through this.

Thanx in advance.

Not the correct syntax. You need to change it to:
-ID 12 -connect spam.spam.spam.spam:5500 -noregistry
