UltraVNC Single-Click <-> ultravnc_repeater.pl

Hi everybody.

I'm having problems connecting an UltraVNC SC .exe to a Linux server running (a slightly modified version of) Karl Runge's ultravnc_repeater.pl.

The HOST section in helpdesk.txt is:

[HOST]
FirstName LastName
-connect IP_ADDRESS:SERVER_PORT -id 12345678

(also tried with -noregistry at the end of the string)

The connection starts (I can see that from ultravnc_repeater.pl's log), but it's killed after few moments (less than a second?).
I tried to capture the log, but it seems not to be saved anywhere. By doing some screenshots (print key), however, and also by seeing the ultravnc_repeater.pl's log ("short read 12 != 250"), it seems there is no full communication between the UltraVNC-SC exe and the repeater.

Is there any known (not to me protocol issue between the two? Or is it just some mistakes I made?

Thanks very much,

Marco

Just in case anyone else wants to know the answer: put the "-id 12345678" string *before* the rest, i.e.:

[HOST]
FirstName LastName
-id 12345678 -connect IP_ADDRESS:SERVER_PORT -noregistry

by doing so, UltraVNC-SC connects correctly to the repeater.

Now the problem lies in making UltraVNC-SC <-> ultravnc_repeater.pl <-> ssvnc/tightvnc work. But Rudi told me that the SC version of UltraVNC uses a customized RFB-3.3 protocol, so there are little chances that things will work fine and I suppose I'm stuck in using UltraVNC-Viewer under Wine...

Thanks,

Marco

Additional information: using ssvnc/tightvnc under Linux seems to work perfectly, even passing through the ultravnc_repeater.pl.
So the bug only shows when running ssvnc/tightvnc under Windows.

Thanks,
