UltraVNC package deployment - how to?

Post by sruf »

Hello,

i'm working at a company with about 500 users and because we are unsatisfied with pcanywhere from symantec we want to use ultravnc to connect to our clients.

so we want to roll out ultrvnc server to all our clients with the following installation settings:


- the service should not run automatically when the system starts up, the user should have to start the service by himself in order to "prevent" the IT to connect to their clients without knowing it. is this possible if the user does not have local admin rights?

- a desktop-icon to start the server is needed

- the port for the incomming connections should be changed to a different one

- no viewer should be installed for the clients, only the server.

- the authentification-check should go via Active Directory from our MS-domaincontroller (but this is just an option, we would use a default username and password too)

- installation of the package should be completely silent

- the trigger "accept incoming connections automatically" should be enabled


my questions are:

has anyone done this so far?

is it possible to use this configurations with silent-install?


Thanks in advance,


Sebastian

Hi sruf,

you can make this if you have:
1."UltraVNC_1.0.4_RC14_Setup.exe"(for example)
2.create an "setupconfig.inf" this should be in the file:
"[Setup]
Lang=de
Dir=C:\Programme\UltraVNC
Group=UltraVNC
NoIcons=0
SetupType=server_silent
Components=ultravnc_server_s
Tasks=installservice,startservice,desktopicon"

I dont know exactly the parameters look here:
http://www.uvnc.com/install/installation.html#automate
(scroll upper and on the left side you will find "cmds"....)

3.create an "install.bat" this should be in the file:
"UltraVNC_1.0.4_RC14_Setup.exe /loadinf="setupconfig.inf"
pause
C:
cd Programme\UltraVNC
winvnc.exe -autoreconnect -connect 192.168.8.35"

only use the first tag if you dont want to start vnc directly.

I hope that I could help you a little bit!
greetings marc

PS:
also you can record a "setupconfig.inf" with this parameters in your console for example:
(UltraVNC-xxxx-Setup.exe /saveinf="Filename")
