FYI: VNC Service - custom service name

Post by plants »

Just an FYI if anyone is creating their own customised deployments...

Accidentally found that when calling [winvnc.exe -install] (which normally installs a service called 'uvnc_service') with an additional parameter, the service name inherits the name of the parameter

So [winvnc.exe -install flange], installs a service called flange
