Repeater usage. problems....

[ashokr]

Hi,

Iam trying to setup for first time, someone please help

i setup a repeater on one host. 192.168.1.11 (all defaults and port 5901)

Then i run server on another pc 192.168.1.104, on default port 5900, then add client with host: as repeater IP 192.168.1.11:5901, ID:1234

i can see the log that saz new client added 1234

Then i go to another machine on subnet, vncviewer with host field ID:1234 and repeater 192.168.1.11:5901


i always get connection failed msg, and no other msg in te log for repeater.

Any ideas?

When making a connection via repeater with the use of an ID, this is Mode II (referring the operation of the repeater). With this mode, the repeater uses 2 ports for communication, one for the viewer (default 5901) and one for the server (default 5500).

If using the default ports, the setting of the repeater s/b:
Accept = 5901
Listen = 5500
Enable Mode II = checked
Restrict access to sever port = 0

Input of server at "add client", (the same IP & code per your post):
Host Name = 192.168.1.11:5500
ID code = ID:1234



Input at Viewer:
VNC Server = ID:1234
Proxy/Repeater Box = checked
Proxy/Repeater = 192.168.1.11:5901

Can someone point me to a more recent version of repeater? i remember seeing a link someone posted but cant seem to locate it.

My settings are exactly the as above suggested by YY. And they are all in the same subnet for my test. (viewer is in same domain as server and repeater)

My settings are exactly the as above suggested by YY.

Exactly???
Per your 1st post, your input at "add client": 192.168.1.11:5901
My suggestion: 192.168.1.11:5500

So what is the actual input in your test?
