under Windows Server 2012R2 i try to start a connection to a vncviewer in listening-mode by runnign ultravnc.exe -connect localhost:portnumber but nothing happens on execution! the exe appears for very short in the task-manager, but then nothing happens! if i execute the server without commandline and click on add new client via the trayicon and type in localhost:portnumber and click on connect everything works fine.
is this a bug?
thanks.
greets

-connect Command not working
Re: -connect Command not working
If the UVNC is already running (no matter in service mode or application mode), then you can initiate the connection using the commandline as you mentioned.
If the UVNC is not started yet, you need to include the "-run" option at the commandline for initiating the connection.

winvnc.exe -connect host:port -run
