SCPrompt - SC on Steroids (7, 8, 10, 2k8+) 26/3/20

[Sdrabor]

Hi sdrabor,

this is not correct in all.
TEXT4 will be written(maybe there is no place to show it dont know at this moment).
But there also TEXT5 existing. (Its hardcoded and not configureable over the "scprompt.ini"-file. (Why hardcode?)).

You can replace it:

open the "scprompt.au3" (maybe "scprompt6.au3"...) with an editor like "notepad++" or "autoit3".
There you have to scroll to the line '288' and '300'.
There you can find this entry concerning "SCPrompt 2009 by Sec IT".
Replace it with yours


best regards,
marc

Thanks for the info on the scpromp.au3 file, I'll check it out. That's interesting about the TEXT4, because no matter what I input in there, it doesn't show up when I execute the file... don't have that problem on any of the other TEXT lines, so not sure what's going on with that then. Guess I'll just have to look into it a little more.

I dont know what version do you have at the moment but in mine(testversion:"SCPrompt2009_roll-your-own_0.9.6.16_testing.zip") it looks ok.
The text's will shown all correctly and additionally the "TEXT5"(hardcoded).

I would export it into the "v2m_lang.ini", the Code in "scprompt8.au3" from line '263' to '270' will look like this:

I am currently working on a solution for this and other text, that will allow it to be setup in the scprompt.ini or the v2m_lang.ini ... this should solve the problems faced by those that support people in multiple languages ...

Bug found in German settings:

Thanks, i will update this, and add size to the buttons.

in the "scpromt8.au3" on line '619' you can find the creation of the Radioentry "MANUAL", I personally wanted to not be shown this entry.

thanks for your suggestions, and code changes ... i have implemented these changes.


i will post the current testing version to the main site for all to download ... this should fix alot of the problems that people have ...

sorry ... i have been too busy answering PMs, and not had time to read the thread posts ...

thanks to all those that have done beta testing, i will let you all know when the next version of scprompt is available for download.

[JDaus]

i have just finished creating a new section in the vnc2me downloads called scprompt ... all files will be placed in there from now on.

all future test releases will be posted in there from now on ...

*UPDATE*
the testing version has now been released to the public ...

a few people have asked for some minor changes, and i will get to those as i have time, but the main application works good, and is quite stable (from what i have heard back), so it is released as it was to the testers (no changes)

changes people have suggested :
ultravnc.ini

• SocketConnect=0
  HTTPConnect=0
  AllowLoopback=0

i have been swamped by PMs, so please be patient if you PM me ... i am BUSY at the moment, and try to fit code changes and forum responses in where i can ...

if you have a general enquiry, please post it in this thread, there are others here that can help (several people have made some great changes to my code, which is awesome, and just what i wanted ...) with even the most complex of problems.

ah yeh ... phoenix has created a settings manager program that i have updated and uploaded for testing ... there are some bugs that i know of, and i will work on those (or somebody else can if they have more time) :

• GUI type doesn't change when settings applied
  Several things in the manager are for a version that incorporates changes by phoenix to allow for yet another GUI style ...

Source is included in the download ... so those that can code autoit, please fix it up for me (just disable the parts that aren't currently relevant, so they can be used in later releases

enjoy

i will update the first post when i get time ... it 23:45, and i have to be on the road again in 6 hours, so i will get some sleep now

[marcgistel]

Hey,

nice thing Phoenix!
I took a look at your settings manager.
The bug with the radiobutton is not comming up if you do these codechanges in Line 61:

"$radio_1 = GUICtrlCreateRadio("Button ", 120, 155, 60, 20, "", @SW_DISABLE)"

to

"$radio_1 = GUICtrlCreateRadio("Button ", 120, 155, 60, 20)"


I think if you try to disable this Radiobutton if you hide it. but then you have to change the radiovalues of the other two entries.

If you have done these changes as i wrote up in this post the radioentries will applied successfully to the ini-file and will be read out successfully.


best regards,
marc

[JDaus]

If you have done these changes as i wrote up in this post the radioentries will applied successfully to the ini-file and will be read out successfully.

thanks marc, it appears that i introduced the bug while trying to get it backdated for the current release ...

i will make the changes, and re-upload when i get to work ... if i find the time

if you can work out how to get tickboxes on the logo, photo, webpage & predefined inputs, this would be great ... i just don't have time at present ... off to work now

best regars,

[marcgistel]

Hey me again.

I thought that the Colorchange from the manager is not so good for users they arent able to put in Hex-code or find out what hex they want to have.


You can see some Screenshots here:

http://img118.imageshack.us/gal.php?g=s ... thcolo.png

If you or phoenix are interested on this please give me a short info. I will post the code.

best regards,
marc

[Sdrabor]

You can replace it:

open the "scprompt.au3" (maybe "scprompt6.au3"...) with an editor like "notepad++" or "autoit3".
There you have to scroll to the line '288' and '300'.
There you can find this entry concerning "SCPrompt 2009 by Sec IT".
Replace it with yours

Marc,

Well took some time and looked through the code where you mentioned, but I'm not having any luck finding what you mentioned.

testversion:"SCPrompt2009_roll-your-own_0.9.6.16_testing.zip"

This is also the version I am using as well.

Also, while testing this out I found that if I leave one of the text entries blank it also auto-populates instead of leaving the line blank. Is there a way to stop it from doing that?

Thanks for all the help.

[marcgistel]

Also, while testing this out I found that if I leave one of the text entries blank it also auto-populates instead of leaving the line blank. Is there a way to stop it from doing that?

Yes for sure.

the method that is used for the text showing has 5 parameters, let me explain:

normal view: "_IniReadWrite(@ScriptDir & "\scprompt.ini", "SC", "TEXT1", "Select the Connection Name")"

1. @ScriptDir = Script Directory(where the script got executed)
2. "\scprompt.ini" = the ini file where the text is placed in
3. "SC" = The Section in this ini file (look like this: [SC])
4. "TEXT1" = The Key in this Section (This Value in this Key will be read out of this _IniReadWrite-method)
5. "Select the Connection Name" = standart output if the value of the Key "TEXT1" is empty.

So the resolution is if you replace this "Select the Connection Name" with "" in the code(but then you have to compile the scprompt.au3....)

Or simple to set the Value in the "scprompt.ini" in beside the Key "TEXT1" to " "(1x Space) then it is not empty
Its just a workarround.


hope that I could explain it to you

best regards,
marc

[warmbooter]

Is there a way to configure it to just connect to a pre-defined connection, when the users executes the app?

I mean, I don't want to show any screen to the user. I just want it to run the executable and get connected to me.

Thanks

Carlos

[Sdrabor]

Yes for sure.

Or simple to set the Value in the "scprompt.ini" in beside the Key "TEXT1" to " "(1x Space) then it is not empty
Its just a workarround.

Ok, so I followed your notes (I think) and changed the following code in scprompt8.au3 below to have " " instead of the normal text that was there. Let me know if I'm looking in the wrong place...

Code: Select all

; PERSONALIZATION
	If $V2M_UsePredefined > 0 Then
		$text1 = _IniReadWrite(@ScriptDir & "\scprompt.ini", "SC", "TEXT1", " ")
		;	$colortext1 = _IniReadWrite(@ScriptDir & "\scprompt.ini", "SC", "COLORTEXT1", 0)
		$text2 = _IniReadWrite(@ScriptDir & "\scprompt.ini", "SC", "TEXT2", " ")
		;	$colortext2 = _IniReadWrite(@ScriptDir & "\scprompt.ini", "SC", "COLORTEXT2", 0)
		$text3 = _IniReadWrite(@ScriptDir & "\scprompt.ini", "SC", "TEXT3", " ")
		;	$colortext3 = _IniReadWrite(@ScriptDir & "\scprompt.ini", "SC", "COLORTEXT3", 0)
		$text4 = _IniReadWrite(@ScriptDir & "\scprompt.ini", "SC", "TEXT4", " ")

After these changes I built the program again, but I still am getting text in unfilled fields, even if I put a space in there to signify that it is blank. Not sure if I'm doing something wrong or what.

As a side note, everything else is working great for me! Thanks for all the hard work guys!

[marcgistel]

Sdrabor

you didnt get it rigth as I wanted to explain you

you got the rigth position in scprompt8.au3.
let me explain it again(hope you can understand it ).

1. option:

you can do it as you did, to change the properties in scprompt8.au3 but then you have to recompile the file with the program "autoit3"(just google for it) and the output file is called "scprompt8.exe"(will be created in the same folder as scprompt8.au3 exists). then you have to rename this .exe to "scprompt.exe" and copy it in the "custom" folder and replace the existing scprompt.exe
--> should work.

2. option(as I wanted to let you do it so because it is much easier):

go into the "custom folder" open scprompt.ini and replace the value of "TEXT1"=" "(space) and "TEXT2"=" ", and 3 and 4.
then run your scprompt.exe and it should work(without recompiling and without editing the scprompt8.au3)
--> should work (its the easier way to solve your problem)


if you have any problems or dont know how to do this please give me a information here and I will do it for you and send you the new .zip file.


warmbooter


thanks for your hint I will speak this option with JDaus and jos and will build a version for you with an new "scprompt.ini" setting called "ImmediatelyConnectTo1" or something like that. If you then put there in the value 1 the scprompt will directly connect to the first connectionentry in your scprompt.ini withour showing any window or so.
I will post it here tomorrow I think.


best regards,
marc

[JDaus]

Updated the first post with all the latest changes in the app ...

I mean, I don't want to show any screen to the user. I just want it to run the executable and get connected to me.

You can do this by using the builder to execute the uvnc server, and passing the correct commandline options to it ... personally i don't want this package to be used in the way you ask, as it could be used for malicious purposes ... and i don't want that ...

but as it is opensource software, anyone can take a look at the code, and change it to their own needs ... i just will not publish such an application for general download from the vnc2me website. these are my thoughts on the subject, and i am sorry if its not what you wanted to hear.

@Marc,
Thanks for replying and helping out everyone ... great work ... thanks

@all
i am bombarded at the moment (have two weeks to get about a months worth of work done ...) hopefully when this is finished, i can find some breathing space for a day or two ... we will have to wait to see ...

BTW, VNC SingleClick has this feature. As it would be an optional setting, I can't see how this can be dangerous. People who don't want to use it, just leave it disabled

[Sdrabor]

Ok, so I found AutoIT3 - downloaded and installed. Now I'm running into problems compiling the file - it errors out when I specify the scprompt8.au3 file with
"Line 34 (File "xxx\scprompt8.au3");

#include "_RefreshSystemTray.au3"

Error: Error opening the file."

Am I now doing something wrong in AutoIT3?

[marcgistel]

Sdrabor

No you not doing something wrong.

this is a refference that is not available in your autoit installation.
This was happened to me, too.

you have 2 possibillitys:

1. go to http://www.autoitscript.com/forum/index ... topic=7404 and copy this code out of the first post,
then go to your autoit installationfolder(mine: D:\Programme\AutoIt3\Include) there you have to create a new .au3-file including the code from the forumpost.
Call this file: "_RefreshSystemTray.au3".
And recompile your scprompt, now it should work.


2. look into your scprompt code and delete these columns:
-(line 34) #include "_RefreshSystemTray.au3"
-(line 676) _RefreshSystemTray(50)
-(line 754) _RefreshSystemTray(50)

And recompile.
These RefreshSystemTrays are in the scprompt because of refreshing the system tray not that some icons standing there after exiting the program.
(In my tests the systemtray was flickering the time and I deleted this lines in the scprompt, working also and is not flickering all the time.)


best regards,
marc

[JDaus]

#include "_RefreshSystemTray.au3"

this is a separate fille that contains code.

I will post the code when I get home
***Edit***
give me 24 Hrs

give me 24 Hrs

I just want to say thank you, for all the work you have done. Getting some one to do all what you have done, for no money, is a great achivement for the open-source community and IT people in general...

[marcgistel]

24 Hrs are passed

Marc,

Thanks for all the help, that worked wonderfully!

[JDaus]

24 Hrs are passed

yeh, sorry, have two weeks left on a major contract, so i'm stressed out at moment ... (more excuses ...) and can't really concentrate on anything but getting it finished ontime ...

sorry, hopefully you helped him out ... thanks if you did ...

Yep, that's JDaus al right
You got a good proggie running here...keep it up

[JDaus]

Yep, that's JDaus al right

i do like to keep myself busy ... a part of that is over-committing myself, which is a problem for others, not for me (SURE ... )

You got a good proggie running here...keep it up

Thanks mate ... would you like to contribute some of your coding time ???

or critique it even ???


@ALL
Just added a new download which contains only the source code ... in future releases source code will be separate (i think this will save confusion ... maybe). This source code contains all the files needed to make the app, including the "_RefreshSystemTray.au3" file, which will not be needed in future releases of the source (functions contained in this file have been included in the main app source code "scprompt[X].au3")

hope this helps those people who want to compile from source, and makes it a little easier for those that don't.

JDaus

[marcgistel]

JD:

the scprompt is trying to start a second instance of uvnc.exe the whole time and is killing it immediatly after the creation.
This is only happening on vistax32.
He is doing that for about 1minute then he is stopping that(waiting 1minute) and it goes again.
Look at this screen:



any ideas? I could not get it for about 2hrs.

best regards,
marc

[faba]

The latest version from Testing works great. Many thanks for your work!

But there is one missing feature imho. It is not possible to have an influence on UAC except of disabling it which is often no option. So it would be great if future versions could also run as a service like the SCBuilder 2009 version does.
Since VNC doesn't crash anymore if UAC asks for confirmation it isn't so bad but it would still be a cool feature to work since no further client interaction would be needed.

SCBuilder itself has some severe bugs which often needs a restart to make it working again.

[Robin]

or critique it even ???

No brother...If i don't like something, i keep quiet...If i LIKE something, i'll compliment it

Icw the coding-participating...I wouldnt mind, but at the mo, I'm thinking of "upping" my code on RAC, but i just dont get the friggen TIME

[JDaus]

But there is one missing feature imho... it would be great if future versions could also run as a service

this would require a total redesign of the code, and I don't have time to answer forum posts at the moment let-alone sit for a few days straight that it would take for the redesign ...

but I will consider it.

have you tried robins app ??? I think it does service mode ! (but could be wrong ...)

I wouldnt mind, but at the mo, I'm thinking of "upping" my code on RAC, but i just dont get the friggen TIME

I know what you mean ...

[Robin]

have you tried robins app ??? I think it does service mode ! (but could be wrong ...)

Unfortunatly , not. I compiled RAC with a little "hacking-style"

[JDaus]

Unfortunatly , not. I compiled RAC with a little "hacking-style"

ah ... that's right ... UVNC-Helper is the one that uses service mode ...
