Connection Dropped

Post by richie19rich77 »

Hi Everyone,

Just starting to look at deploying Windows 7 across our estate, but having problems when testing UltraVNC 1.1.9.0.

Installs fine and can remote to workstation using basic VNC password / MS Logon and New MS Logon. But when I logout of windows the VNC Viewer will freeze with a message saying "Connection dropped, trying to reconnect (3)", and then after about 15 seconds it will refresh and display the login prompt.

I have tried with the firewall disabled but still the same.

Any ideas?

The vnc service restart the server when the console session change.
On the viewer site this cause a connection drop and a auto reconnect.

Cause:
From Vista>= multiple isolated sessions are used.
Vnc need to be running in the active session -> restarted by service
