Re: ChunkVNC viewer for OS X
Can someone explain how to use SSVNC to connect to a chunkvnc server please as I have been reading various guides but have not been successful.
I am able to connect using ChunkViewer on Microsoft Windows so I know the repeater and server are functioning properly.
My setup is as follows:
Remote server I want to view: 172.16.1.90
Repeater machine: 172.16.1.10
I have set the remote server ID to 777777
Currently tried these SSVNC settings:
VNC Host:Display = :0
Proxy/Gateway = repeater://172.16.1.10:5500+172.16.1.90:777777
Regards
Jason

Re: ChunkVNC viewer for OS X
You're not supposed to specify the IP address of the target server, merely the repeater ID with which it's registered itself (777777 in your case).
That said, I don't know whether or not SSVNC is compatible with ChunkVNC, though it should be.
Good luck.

Re: ChunkVNC viewer for OS X
Hello B
Have also tried:
Proxy/Gateway = repeater://172.16.1.10:5500+777777
But that did not work either. I have read in a few places that SSVNC has worked for connecting to Uvnc repeaters.
Here is the info from the console as I click connect, when using the string format you suggested:
UltraVnc Thu Aug 19 20:05:05 2010 > checkIdCode(): 777777 is not IdCode string
UltraVnc Thu Aug 19 20:05:05 2010 > parseHostAndPort() start: id = 777777
UltraVnc Thu Aug 19 20:05:05 2010 > parseHostAndPort() end: host = 777777, port = 5900
UltraVnc Thu Aug 19 20:05:05 2010 > acceptConnection(): Mode 1 connections only allowed from viewers, closing connection

Re: ChunkVNC viewer for OS X
Certainly sounds like your syntax is still off -- it thinks you want to connect with a <b>host</b> named 777777.
I haven't played with SSVNC in a long time; perhaps someone else can advise you. [ moved thread to VNC Related Products for attention ]

Re: SSVNC Repeater Problems (and ChunkVNC)
It should be "ID:777777" not "777777"
Also for the VNC viewer it should be port 5900 not 5500.
The following is from the ssvnc proxy documentation:
MODE II REPEATER:
For the mode II repeater both the VNC viewer and VNC server initiate
TCP connections to the repeater proxy. In this case they pass a string
that identifies their mutual connection via "ID:NNNN", for example:
VNC Host:Display: :0
Proxy/Gateway: repeater://myuvncrep.west:5900+ID:2345
again, the default proxy port is 5900 if not supplied. And we need
to supply a placeholder display ":0".
Also for the VNC viewer it should be port 5900 not 5500.

Re: SSVNC Repeater Problems (and ChunkVNC)
Thanks, Karl!
Jason, Karl is of course the (outrageously talented) developer of SSVNC and other good things.

Re: SSVNC Repeater Problems (and ChunkVNC)
Alright, Karl to the rescue once again!
Mac support is pretty Alpha at this point in time, if you code up something nice or at least figure out the syntax it would be awesome if you'd share the knowledge. I hope to have a native Mac viewer someday but I wouldn't plan on it anytime this year.

Are you asking me this question?
Are you asking about a native Mac VNC viewer (e.g. Chicken of the VNC) modified to support ultravnc ID:nnnn? Or something else?
Of course SSVNC already does this, but it requires XQuartz server on the mac.
Well, actually, SSVNC already does ultravnc repeater if you choose Chicken of the VNC (or other native viewer) as the viewer (I just checked.) It runs a 'proxy' in front of the native viewer to handle the ultravnc repeater handshake.

Re: SSVNC Repeater Problems (and ChunkVNC)
Karl,
The comment was directed at the OP but you already know how much we like your code around here.
I don't know enough about coding for OSX at this point in time to have an intelligent conversation about XQuartz and such but my plan was just to use your SSVNC viewer and wrapper it.
Any input you have on this would be appreciated as would any work you'd like to do.
Better Mac support is the next project after getting the planned Windows features done.
I should have tons of time once summer is over and things settle down to research it further, at that time I'm sure I'll have questions for you.

I'm having problems using a Mac to view a Chunkvnc client I'm having issues using SSVNC.

Re: SSVNC Repeater Problems (and ChunkVNC)
i am also getting problem in using SSVNC but at last got rid of it.
Re: SSVNC Repeater Problems (and ChunkVNC)
Ronald; care to share how?
Re: SSVNC Repeater Problems (and ChunkVNC)
I have been able to get this working.
You need to enter ":0" in the VNC Host display field.
Leave the VNC password field blank, and enter the repeater addres and add the ID after the repeater address as follows:
VNC Host- ":0" (without quotes)
VNC Password- (none)
Proxy/Gateway- "repeater://support.test.com:5500+ID:2"
Where my repeater server is listening on port 5500, so it does not have to be 5900, and the ID is for the repeater handshake
