Numpad doesn´t work.

Post by full-mann »

Hai,
we use Ultra VNC to connect to IGEL ThinClients.
While connection the numpad doesn´t work.

This Problem we had in the 1.0.9.5 too.
Is it possible to make anything?
Is it only a configuration or a bug?

Thanks a lot!

Hai,
don´t understand all of you.
what do you mean with "admin properties of winvnc"?
what do you mean with "alternate keyboard methode on 1.0.9.6"?

japanese keyboard is not enabled. i tested it enabled and numpad still doesn´t work.

i don´t find "ultravnc.ini" on my pc. where is the standard-location?

thanks a lot.

Admin Properties can be accesed by right clicking on the UltraVNC tray icon.

The ultravnc.ini file is usually located in the same directory as winvnc.exe (the server executable).

Okay, now i unterstand.
My user has admin properties. The System is a Windows XP so there is no UAC.

i searched for the ini-file, but there is no one on the hole pc.
maybe the ini isn´t there, because i only installed the viewer?

Yeah, if the server side (on your thin clients) is not UltraVNC, I don't think the above advice applies?

What VNC server is running on your thin clients?

You might want to try http://www.karlrunge.com/x11vnc/ssvnc.html from the author of x11vnc.

Hai,
thank you for this idea,i tested the ssvnc.
but it doesn´t work.
Error while connect to the client: "Error while waiting for server message"
and UltraVNC is faster.

Some other idea?

ultravnc viewer with x11vnc i think not possible faster
ssvnc with x11vnc i think should be faster,
setting are not optimized at server or/and vncviewer

why not use pure x11viewer client as suggested by B, moderaotr, on another post

connection over LAN (office) or over Internet or VPN ?
setting should apply of style of connection
i can't help
anyway, this not help, ask your administrator who set the x11vnc to explain best option for your vncviewer.

is it possible to start this viewer with an connection?
at the moment we use "ultravnc.exe <hostname>" to connect automatically to the client.
i tried with ssvnc and it doesn´t work.

Karl has written extensive documentation on the ssvnc site: http://www.karlrunge.com/x11vnc/ssvnc.html

Usage: vncviewer [<OPTIONS>] [<HOST>][:<DISPLAY#>]
vncviewer [<OPTIONS>] [<HOST>][::<PORT#>]
vncviewer [<OPTIONS>] exec=[CMD ARGS...]
vncviewer [<OPTIONS>] fd=n
vncviewer [<OPTIONS>] /path/to/unix/socket
vncviewer [<OPTIONS>] -listen [<DISPLAY#>]

Hai,
thank you for this answer.
the problem is, that wenn i try to start ssvnc with "vncviewer" my computer tells me that he don´t know what "vncwiever" is.
i think this is because ssvnc is no installation. so my computer can´t link "vncviewer" with ssvnc.
somebody an idea how to fix it?

[EDIT]i checked if numpad works with ssvnc. and see that it doesn´t work. same as in ultravnc.[/EDIT]
