UVNC Over VPN IP Address

[HoustonIT]

I'm trying to setup UVNC on a network that consists of mostly remote users connected via VPN. I've got the client running on two PC's, and each one displays the local IP address on hover and not the VPN IP address. It still works surprisingly with the VPN address, but I would much rather have the VPN address displayed or the hostname displayed with the end user hovers over the tray icon. That way the user can give me the info I need immediately, as opposed to resolving the local IP to something useful to connect to. Any ideas?

That is because the UVNC service has finished the IP binding before the VPN tunnel is established, therefore it just aware the existence of the local IP.

To verify, after the VPN is up, try to restart the UVNC service. If the restarted UVNC can show both IP when hovers over the tray icon, then it is the case as above-mentioned.

The solution is to delay the startup of the UVNC service until the VPN tunnel is up. Some people using the free tool Startup Delayer are successful to solve this problem. You may take a trial.

I had lot of problems on Windows7 with my OpenVPN tunneling, because normally Win7 firewall does allow only LAN connection to vnc.

The final solution was disabling the firewall-checkbox on the "virtual LAN card" = TAP win32 ....
and redoing the firewall setup for allowing UVNC FULLY (private too) in the "special firewall settings" part.
