Repeater with password

Post by MandiNice »

Hi

I use Hamachi to connect meherer computer and UltraVNC for remote control.
When a Client connect to the server a password is necessary.

I wont use Hamachi and test repeater to connect the UVNC-Client to the UVNC-Server.
This will work.
The server is connected to the repeater and when a client connect to the repeater with correct ID the remote control work well.
But why there is no password request ?
I would need password to prevent for unauthorized access.

Many thanks for helping

Mandi

If server connect to the viewer there is no password, server initiate the connection.
Using the repeater you still have an outoing server connection -> no password request.

You always should use an encryption plugin to protect your connection.

-using a key, and use the same key by server and viewer
-using the vnc password as key (default behaviour) ( viewer is ask to enter the password)
