Customize "Query on incoming connection" window

Post by btriem »

It would be wonderful to have the capacity to customize the connection request window text.

Currently it simply states "WinVNC has received an incoming connection from 000.000.000.000 Do you with to Accept or Reject the connection?


I'd like to put custom text in to replace the text to something more formal:

"A remote connection from ABC Company is requesting access to your desktop. Do you with to Accept or Reject the request?"

It would also be wonderful for the user to have a text box to put a quick comment in as to why they are rejecting the request. "Give me 10 minutes."

Thanks!

This is a feature I will pay the developers to build into a custom build if this feature is not appealing to the community or if it helps expedite its development.

I am also very interested in this feature.

If no user is logged on, I'd like to be able to have a little custom icon in the corner mentioning who is currently logged on (on the target machine). This way if someone wants to know who's currently using a machine, they'll know at a glance.

I like the topic creators idea.

on the other end of my phone, the people that want help, simply don't understand the message. where I work, the mother tonge is not english, so that makes it even harder. It's hard when I need to point out to the person that he/she have to accept. it should be made so simple to understand that he/she should understand that accepting is what's needed.

It's been a while since this thread started. Has any progress been made with regards to this feature? My end users also do not understand English so they would not know what to do when confronted with the current "Query on incoming connection" message box. To have some way to edit the contents of the message box would be super awesome.

I second this.

I believe this two can be related: https://forum.ultravnc.net/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=29431

Both options would be great.

If I can do anything to help implement this I'm available. I'm a web designer so not a real application programmer but I'm willing to help.

Thanks for this great application.
