Encrypted remote connection and SecureVNCPlugin.dsm plugin

Post by balubeto »

Hi

I would like to create an encrypted remote connection with UltraVNC 1.1.8.0 and the SecureVNCPlugin.dsm plugin.

The computer, which I would check, has Windows 7 SP1 64-bit and the client computer has Windows XP SP3.

So someone could explain step by step how to do this?

Thanks

Bye

1) Copy the plugin to the server and viewer folder.
Just make sure that you use a x64/x86 plugin if the server/viewer is a x64/x86 exe.
Select that server and viewer use this plugin, you don't need to config anything.

2) The plugin can be configured on the server site. If you crate a key make sure you copy the
key to the viewer ( same folder as exe)

If I generate on the Server a private key in a pkey file with the SecureVNCPlugin.dsm plugin of UltraVNC server 1.1.8.0 64 bit and I move this file to the directory of UltraVNC Viewer 1.1.8.0 32-bit on the Client, how do I to ensure that the viewer uses this pkey file?

Thanks

The security is server based.
The server know the key need to be used, this mean there is no key exchange between server/viewer, instead the server tell
the viewer to use the predefined key. No config on viewer site needed, he just need to find the key.

I do not understand: If in the directory of the viewer I have more of a pkey files that were generated by more VNC server installed on multiple Server, when I log on to one of these Server, as I do to instruct the viewer to associate a particular public key?

Thanks

In other words, how do I manage more pkey files coming from more VNC server using the SecureVNC plugin 32/64 bit?

AFAIK the keys are paired based on initial Date substring in filename.
